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.

"It is hard to see how people who are opposed to faith-based organizations can support the dogmas of the schools of education or the multiculturalists."

This one too:

"Everybody is for 'fairness' -- because we all use the same word to mean very different things. Some of the most confused and counterproductive policies -- 'fair trade' laws and the Fair Labor Standards Act, for example -- have been built upon the shifting sands of fairness."
