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: Texan Ron Paul enters race for GOP nomination

The True Believers have already started excoriating Paul, calling him "nutcase" and "fruitcake." Since Paul is, by any measure, the most conservative member of Congress, this behavior lends credence to the school of thought that the GOP is no longer the conservative party in America. Also, since Paul has been re-elected nine times, the GOP machine's assertions that he has only a fringe following is patently absurd.

As I said before, and now it seems it is official, I will be participating in the GOP primary.
