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: Greens Are the Real Energy Problem

From a blogger named Red Headed Step Child:

Ha. What fluff. Just complaining and labeling, no real suggestion. I don't recall Cheney having a closed door meeting with "radical environmentalists" to set national energy policy -- I thought that meeting was with oil execs. They and Cheney seem to mutual chokeholds on one another (Haliburton?!) But perhaps they are the radicals the writer is referring to. It is pretty radical to think that oil will last forever, and that it is justifiable to destroy whatever happens to be sitting on top of every little drop of oil.
