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.

Antireligious Tests

Rush was right. ... Roberts does look like Richard Burr.


From George Neumayr, executive editor of The American Spectator:

For many Democrats the only good Catholic is a bad one -- a Catholic ready to dissent from his religion for the sake of a spot in the secularized public square. Pat Leahy, Chuck Schumer, and company are sure to question, in one veiled form or another, Supreme Court nominee John Roberts about his Catholicism. That is, they won't baldly ask him about his religion but they will probe his "personal" views, and the question implied will be: You promise to give our judges' liberal rewriting of the Constitution greater priority than your own religion, right?
