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.

Labor's Rumplestiltskin

From the Free Market Minute:

What do early retirement buyouts at General Motors, IBM and Progress Energy (Raleigh News & Observer, 4/20/05) have in common with the state of North Carolina's temporary worker tempest, and the 35-hour European work week? All are cost-cutting measures, and the result of past compensation packages too high for current market conditions.
