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.

Americans Want Photo IDs to Prevent Voter Fraud

By Bill O'Reilly

If you want to buy cigarettes in America — you got to show an ID. If you want to get on an airplane — photo ID required. If you want to enter buildings here in Los Angeles — you got it — photo ID. But if you want to go to vote, no ID required.

Over a week ago, the House passed the Federal Election Integrity Act of 2006, which would change the ID situation so that all Americans would have to have a photo ID if they wanted to vote in the 2008 presidential election...

...But there is bitter opposition to the photo IDs from the far left. Even though the bill would require states to provide free ID cards to the poor, the far left still doesn't want the law.
