Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Yes, and I suppose we went to war so we could have this burden! People someday may wake out of the fog of idiocy and re-connect to reality.

There are many fronts on every war, and Iraq was just one of them. If the ME is coming after us, we need to take them out. One country at a time. If we start with the one that we already are at war with (people forget this), maybe-just maybe-the rest will fall without having to fire another shot.

Republican form of government (NOT Democracy :) is the best!
