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: Bennett's Words Used to Tar Republicans

This couldn't be more Orwellian. Of course no one ever "tars" Democrats with the hateful bile and filth that pours out of the mouths of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Louis Farrakhan. Yet many mainstream Democrats openly embrace these bigoted fools. Time will tell if the media chooses to make a big deal out of this, but I doubt it. Bennett's words were probably ill-timed and maybe ill-chosen, but they are factual. Throwing facts at Democrats/liberals is like throwing water on the Wicked Witch of the West.
