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: RE: "Paris Syndrome"

Strother opines: "For whatever reason, it seems that many of these xenophobic stories reported here in the good old USA are courtesy of our paranoid friends over at Fox News, so this report really isn't surprising. I assume that their audience eats it up like Freedom Fries, so it must pay to seek out this sort of BS."

This came from Brit Hume's "Political Grapevine" segment... Hume lost his composure a few times while he was reading this because he thought it was funny. Don't take things like this so seriously... I'm sure the people who watch Fox News thought it was funny, like me. :-)
