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.

A Good Day for Good Government

From John Hood's Daily Journal:

Wednesday, June 1 was an exciting one at the General Assembly. It was the start of the crossover deadline – the day that bills without a budgetary impact had to receive the first of two floor votes in a legislative chamber required to stay alive in the 2005 session. It was also, judging by the results, a very good day for liberty and good government in North Carolina.
