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.

Hillary's Bosnia Tour T-shirt


The Patriot Shop

“I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.” -- Hillary Clinton, 17 March, 2008

After Clinton's speech on her heroic entrance into Bosnia in 1996, news footage surfaced showing that it was, in fact, a very peaceful visit, with not a sniper in sight. Clinton's daughter, Chelsea, accompanied her on the trip, and footage shows Clinton hugging children and participating in a concert with Sheryl Crow.

Hillary's response to being caught in such a bold-faced lie? “You know, I think that, a minor blip, you know, if I said something that, you know, I say a lot of things—millions of words a day—so if I misspoke, that was just a misstatement.”

To honor the would-be President Clinton's "minor blip," The Patriot Shop now offers a tribute to Hillary's "Sniper Fire Tour." Our exclusive T-shirt is made of 100% combed jersey cotton and features a 4" x 4" Sniper Fire Tour crest on the front left of the shirt, and a large graphic (10" x 12") on the back.
