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.

Cleaning House

(Fox News) - The owners of a Washington dry cleaning shop who were sued for $54 million by a D.C. judge who claimed they lost his pants have decided to close the store where the dispute began.

An attorney for Jin and Soo Chung says the store lost customers and revenue during the two years of litigation, which resulted in a dismissal of the lawsuit — a decision that is under appeal.

The South Korean immigrants have now shut down two of their three businesses. They still operate their original dry cleaning store across from the D.C. Convention Center.
