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: One more time...

Because if he really was concerned about USING TAX $$$ for immoral purposes...

Oh, I get it now! How silly of me! I was completely unaware of the "you're only allowed to report one waste of tax dollars at a time and it's only allowed to be the one that Tucker considers important" rule. Right. I'll try to work on that. He also didn't complain about $500 toilet seats and Mohair goat subsidies in Arizona. Should we call him names and read him the riot act over that too? The nerve of him, not writing a column to address every single thing in the world that is wrong before addressing one sorry pervert disguised as a college professor in a taxpayer-funded institution who gets his jollies by showing porn to teenagers.

My reading comprehension is just fine, thanks very much. It's good enough to see that you have changed the basis of your "all I'm saying is..." rebuttal twice now. First you were irritated because you perceived MR to be declaring himself King of Morality and now you're irritated because he's not complaining about the war. You've nowhere to go now.

While my reading comprehension is working fine, my "blindered march into a painted corner argument" function isn't working so well. And thank God for that!
