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.

RE: Why Islam is disrespected

Steve Brenneis opines:

Good article, but I think Jacoby lets Newsweek off the hook too easily. Yes, if you throw a match into gasoline, it will explode. That's its nature. However, that doesn't make the act of throwing the match any less stupid or criminal. Newsweek is still culpable, whether through negligence or premeditation.
