speechify

v. -- to speechify is to incessantly, superfluously bloviate in regards to an issue that usually calls for more direct action (or a change of course).

President Bush's strategy to combat the Iraq war's unpopularity is to speechify. Maybe he'll realize how dumb a strategy that is after his party loses Congress in Nov. 2006.
