Mr Bush last night:
To give every Iraqi citizen a stake in the country's economy, Iraq will pass legislation to share oil revenues among all Iraqis. To show that it is committed to delivering a better life, the Iraqi government will spend $10 billion of its own money on reconstruction and infrastructure projects that will create new jobs. To empower local leaders, Iraqis plan to hold provincial elections later this year. And to allow more Iraqis to re-enter their nation's political life, the government will reform de-Baathification laws, and establish a fair process for considering amendments to Iraq's constitution.
Mr.Bush in October:
...sharing oil revenues, amending the Iraqi constitution, and reforming the de-Baathification process.
Bush last night:
We will use America's full diplomatic resources to rally support for Iraq from nations throughout the Middle East. Countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, and the Gulf States need to understand that an American defeat in Iraq would create a new sanctuary for extremists and a strategic threat to their survival.
Bush in October:
...reaching out to Arab states such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Jordan, and asking them to support the Iraqi government's efforts to persuade Sunni insurgents to lay down their arms and accept national reconciliation.
As I have stated earlier, this rhetoric has not changed since 2004! His speech last night was the same old shit in different clothing.
As pointed out over at the Daily Kos, the only difference between last night and his speech back in October is the 207 that have died since then and Bush not saying:
Absolutely, we're winning.
Of course Bush did not mention his next pre-emptive strike on Iran which is coming soon to a TV near you! Film at 11!
