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: 'Seinfeld' Star Michael Richards Apologizes on 'Letterman' for Racial Slurs

Steve -> "I'd love to hear a rational explanation of why this is important enough to merit national attention."

In the scheme of things, it doesn't merit national attention. But since Mel Gibson got raked over the coals for what he said, Michael Richards deserves the same ridicule. At least Gibson can say he was drunk when he said what he said, Richards can't.
