Speechifying

President Bush today gave a speech to the VFW in Washington. Here's MSNBC's description:

President Bush urged Iraqis on Tuesday to put aside political, religious and sectarian differences to form a government of national unity, warning that the country "risks sliding back into tyranny" if it dwells on old grievances.

"Compromise and consensus and power sharing are the only path to national unity and lasting democracy," Bush said in a speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

That certainly has a hollow ring to it coming from a man who has done everything in his power to divide his own country and cater to extremists, doesn't it? Do as I say, not as I do.
