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.

Half-Baked Alaska

Patrick J. Michaels writes:

The inexorable drumbeat of climate disaster stories goes on, but no one seems interested in checking the facts. The most recent assault on common sense comes from Alaska. There, Republican senators Ted Stevens and Lisa Murkowski are said to be favoring onerous climate change legislation sponsored by Arizona's John McCain.

Welcome to the new face of the GOP: John McCain. They have found someone the media seems to love and the Democrats don't attack. Doesn't anyone else see the problem with that?

I already have a change of voter registration form on my desk. I fully expect the Congress will pass this and Bush will sign it, thereby forcing me to use the form.
