and from the "do as I say, not as I do" Department....
this predictably steaming turd of presidential-related-program-activty hypocrisy......


May 21, 2004 | WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush, forced to defend a Deep South state he comfortably won four years ago, is trying to offset the attention Democratic rival John Kerry is lavishing on Louisiana.

Bush combines a pitch for votes and money Friday as he delivers the commencement address at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge before heading to a New Orleans suburb to speak to Republican Party donors.

His remarks at LSU will drive home the themes of responsibility and service to society, the White House said. It will echo the president's commencement speech last week in Wisconsin, where he suffered a narrow loss in 2000.

The Kerry campaign has unexpectedly put conservative-leaning Louisiana in play and Bush's re-election campaign is responding in kind. The state is one of 19 targeted by Kerry with a $25 million TV advertising buy, and he has visited three times in the past two months. Bush has responded with advertising, too.
