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.

Not much to argue with here

Of course, I also think that the public schools should be torn down, the grounds sown with salt and the teachers and various administrators and counselors released into the wilderness with thousand-dollar bounties on their ears. Although since I don't believe in government subsidies, even in a worthy cause, we could just send them all to the sunny socialist shores of Cuba instead.

Until that blessed day, I don't care what is being "taught" there. It's like worrying about what the cattle are being taught at the local meat-packing factory. Kids who can't read or do math aren't going to be doing much evolutionary biology or theology either.


Vox Day

Ummm, yeah.
