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.

No Winner Here

Fox News

Military mom turned peace activist Cindy Sheehan announced yesterday that she was a finalist for the Nobel Peace Prize at a book signing in Texas. But the committee in charge of selecting the winner never reveals the list of nominees, raising the question of how Sheehan knew she'd been nominated? And what's more…national blogs that take bets about who will win the prize didn't even have Sheehan on the list.


And as you know by now—Sheehan was not the winner.
