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.
"To my friend Senator Kennedy, thank you for trying to find a way, as much as we're different, to make this country better, more secure, to treat 12 million people in a way they've never been treated."
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)
