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: OBX Talk

The locals don't want this, but they have no recourse because of their reluctance for zoning laws.

Then, apparently, the absence of zoning is more important to the locals than keeping "bigwigs" and their boats out.

So what is the point? You and Strother have both described the problem (as you see it), but neither of you has offered suggestions or solutions. You have both hinted broadly that someone or something should act, but you hesitate to be specific. Why is that?

Obviously, you think something should happen differently than is happening now. What is it you want to happen and how should it happen?
