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.

Bound for America

(Fox News) - New French President Nicolas Sarkozy is planning for his first summer vacation in office. So where does the leader of a European power go to relax? How about Wolfeboro, New Hampshire?

The pro-American Sarkozy will get his R&R on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee, a popular vacation destination with Bostonians — including Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, who owns a house there.

No word on why Sarkozy would spend August in a place with more French fries than French restaurants.
