Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Former Sen. Howell Heflin of Alabama, R.I.P.

Rush Limbaugh writes:

Howell Heflin, senator from Alabama passed away. He was a good guy, on some occasions. He made some wrong choices on others, Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas, but big old bear of a man, big, big old guy, and I have a story about Howell Heflin that's a true, true story. I've told this countless times. I used to warm up the audience at the TV show with this story but it's true.
