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: RE: B's a proud socialist... :-)

I don't think he understands the mandates of TANF (Temporary Aid for Needy Families - which was, I hate to admit, signed into law by Clinton). TANF perpetuates poverty. It doesn't help the families and individuals participating in the program get off of welfare.

That's a lie. I am intimately familiar with TANF and I can personally attest that it works quite well.

And tell Reba that she can sing that song until doomsday, but repeating it doesn't make it true.
