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: The Hitler vs. Coulter Quiz

...hope everyone realizes that the Hitler quotes were simply updated to reflect how he might feel about US 'liberals' today.

From what I assume is the original quiz's webpage, http://www.giveupblog.com/hitlercoulterquiz.html:

For this quiz I've replaced some of Hitler's pro-Aryan and anti-Semitic language with the words, "America", "Democrat", "liberal", and "the liberal media" to make the Coulter quotes a little more difficult to spot.

Exactly who each quote refers to matters little. The scary part of the 'test' is that the average American probably has to stop to think about who so enthusiastically said each of those things, Coulter or Hitler.
