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.

Rush Limbaugh's Morning Update: Merry What?

This week, on my award-winning radio program, I discussed a new trend among environmentalist wackos. An article in the UK Daily Mail focused on women opting for abortions and sterilization to save the world from global warming. One of these poor people -- Sarah, an idiot! -- agonizes over climate change; decided that "a baby would pollute the planet -- and that never having a child was the most environmentally friendly thing" she could do. (The only good about this is liberals are aborting themselves; that's another matter.)

Sane people, you see, they can't wrap their arms around this kind of thing, folks, but it's everywhere! Our own Drive-By Media, running stories about consumers who view gift-wrap as "a primary offender" [of the environment]. (I don't even believe a lot of people care about it, but these people are saying they do!) Supposedly, hordes of people looking for alternatives to throwing away wrapping paper? Because it overtaxes our already overburdened resources? Christmas lights are also bad; you idiots who use old-style "electricity-draining" lights instead of the environmentally-friendly LEDs -- you're injuring the Earth, too.

Look: it's time we face some facts here, folks. The entire Christmas season is environmentally unfriendly. Your gift-giving promotes consumption and selfishness; traveling is environmentally hostile; good cheer -- why, that's a denial of how bloody awful life is on this planet and how unhappy you really are, thanks to you rotten humans who pollute the erf with each cursed breath you take... There's only going to be peace on Earth and good will toward men when man aborts himself off the planet and the wilderness returns to a pristine state without us! Idiots!
