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: Had enough?

Steve opines: "On the score one for Williams front, though, I watched him on Fox the other night while Krauthammer and Barnes were going into histrionics about the aftermath of a Lieberman defeat this evening. I thought the two of them were going to wet their pants. They were both barking about how a loss by Lieberman would toss the Democrats back to the stone(d) age of the 60s, allowing the looney left to assert their will over the Democrats (as if that wasn't already the case). Williams was incredulous, as was I. Of the three, Williams was the only one who didn't look like a frothing lunatic at the end of the broadcast."

Now, Steve, I saw the the same segment last night... One, Barnes always acts like that and two, Krauthammer was his same typical self. Krauthammer didn't look like a "frothing lunatic" last night... Dr. Krauthammer didn't pull a Dr. Dean. :-)
