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: Liberals: Born to run

...Born To Run — the best album from the Boss. But I digress.

What's the topic? Oh, yeah — the Hezbollah/Israeli conflict.

Tanya: 'Remember that any nation that goes up against Israel will fall and to go up againt Israel is like saying I'm ready for the apocalypse to begin.'

Hezbollah is an out-of-control, radical Islamic political party full of terrorists who have no problem using acts of aggression to further its cause. It is not a nation. Secondly, some people are truly obsessed with apocalypticism, aren't they?

'I agree Israel needs to destroy Southern Lebanon, hey go far all of Lebanon why not... Like I said before the Middle East does nothing but breed terrorist so the more cities Israel can take down the better.'

Wow — your apparent lack of benevolence is breathtaking. Israel choosing to 'destroy' any nation — going any further than defending itself with focused might toward its aggressors — would reduce them to a nation of terrorists. I don't think any sensible person would be in favor of that, and Coulter's opinion on the subject is proof. By the way, does the term 'innocent victims' mean anything to you?
