Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

"Bonnie and Clyde"

Fox News

Al Gore — who's in Australia to promote his global warming movie — is calling the U.S. and Australia the "Bonnie and Clyde" of the climate crisis for failing to ratify the Kyoto Protocol.

Australian Prime Minister John Howard calls Gore a "peeved politician" and says global warming "is not going to overwhelm us tomorrow. We are not going to drown in the sea in a couple of weeks time."
