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.

If You Thought Impeaching Bush Was a Dead Issue, Think Again

Fox News

Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told other Democrats there will be no talk of efforts to impeach President Bush or anyone else, but that won't stop the anti-war left from clamoring for the President's head this weekend.

The liberal group ImpeachPAC has organized more than 50 protests across the country on Sunday to call for congressional investigations into alleged human rights violations and misconduct in Iraq, and to lobby state and local governments to pass resolutions supporting impeachment. Democrats as a group may not be pushing the idea but some individual Democrats are.

Controversial Georgia Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney has already taken part in a forum sponsored by ImpeachPAC accusing the President of "war crimes, torture and crimes against humanity."
