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.

Have you even read the book?

Silly boy, of course I read it, almost a year ago. Also, since I generally give an author at least two chances, I also read The Digital Fortress. Both were utter garbage. Contrived plots, paper-thin characters, wooden dialog, and a writing style for which any middle school student would get a D- in creative writing.

If you want to read an actual novel by an actual author on the same subject, read Umberto Eco's Foucault's Pendulum. Brown is a hack and whoever is encouraging him to publish should be ashamed of themselves.
