Bush urges compromise over Iraq constitution

MSN Money - Financial Times Business News: Bush urges compromise over Iraq constitution: "The White House confirmed on Friday that Mr Bush had placed a call late this week to Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim, a key Shia leader, urging that efforts be continued to reach a compromise with Sunni leaders on the text of the draft constitution, which is scheduled to go to a referendum in October.

Trent Duffy, a White House spokesman, told reporters at the president's Crawford, Texas, ranch that the brief call was made 'to discuss current developments in Iraq's constitutional process'."
