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.

Steve responds to Behethland:

"They should at least know right from wrong."
Are you talking about the officers or the grunts? The grunts don't need to know right from wrong, they just need to know how to follow orders. A soldier who pauses in the field to consider whether what they are doing is right or wrong is also known as a corpse.
