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.

Bush & Immigration...

Anticipating a turbulent debate over immigration, President Bush urged Congress yesterday to tone down the increasingly sharp and divisive rhetoric over the issue.
Bush knows that he has a losing hand on this issue... When a person is asking for the debate to be "tone down" and civil, then that person is practically saying, "Look, I know I'm on the wrong side of this issue, but let's keep the debate to the bare bones. That way, the less the people know, the better off I'll be..." I say let the debate begin!!! :-)


Steve said: "Stupid, stupid, stupid. I'm beginning to suspect Bush might actually be somewhat retarded."
Come on, Steve... We don't need comments like that either.
