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: Ron Carroll

Apparently Ron Carroll, who is running for County Commissioner in Stokes County, NC, believes that it takes no courage to be a Republican and to be opposed to tax increases. The corollary of that would be that Ronnie, who apparently favors all kinds of tax increases, thinks his position is courageous.

Yeah, I heard from a source that was there that Carroll did say that... That was a slap in the face to the Reagan conservatives in Stokes.
