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.

What conservative crack-up?

Christopher Chantrill of The American Thinker writes:

With Terri Schiavo dead and Social Security reform in the balance, the pundits are suddenly (again) calling for a “conservative crack-up.” Yet sales of The Purpose-driven Life have tripled in the last two weeks, according to the Wall Street Journal weekly Sales Index, beating out the best-selling fiction title. Perhaps readers of The New York Times are rushing out to buy it after its March 27 Sunday Magazine featured a megachurch in Surprise, Arizona, run by ex-Microsoftie Lee McFarland.

Now that's downright cruel and unusual punishment. The NYT cannot help their bias if they cannot even find it! LOL.
