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.

If Behethland plans to boycott ExxonMobil, I'll make her a list of things to avoid. She'll probably have to go live in the woods, wear homespun and go barefoot, and eat berries and nuts, though.
