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.

Andy can't get no satisfaction

Keep in mind that you are talking about people who's sole job is writing. How are they any different from an author or poet? You can't expect them to sit quietly and surpress their emotions when emotion is what fuels their creativity! You obviously aren't too turned off by the subject of their songs because you continue to listen and buy the cds. And an intelligent mind likes to be challenged whether it is through music, talk radio, books, newpapers or a blog!

The fact is that they are using a public forum to discuss issues that are important to them, just like we are using this forum. We certainly don't all agree, but I believe we all have a good time! And if you don't like one song, you can always skip on to the next!
