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.

Reading is Fundamental

"I’m not here to defend the ‘Chinese Communists,’ but calling them stupid is probably not the best choice of words."

Nope. Looked through everything I posted this month. Can't find a single place where I said that.

"The ironic thing about it is that enforcing mandatory contraception would probably require about as much effort as prosecuting every known instance of abortion to find those ‘morally justified’ in terminating a pregnancy."

Ridiculous. But hyperbole seems to be the order of the day, so I'm not going to take this any further.
