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.

No bleepin' way! Blagojevich won't budge in Illinois bid to nudge out scandal gov

Will he stay or will he go?

(NYDailyNews.com) - Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan held out hope Sunday that scandal-plagued Gov. Rod Blagojevich may resign Monday, but the potty-mouthed pol has signaled there's no bleepin' way.

"We [had] heard that there [was] a possibility that [yesterday] he [would] make an announcement where he [would] step aside," Madigan told NBC's "Meet the Press."

A resignation would save the state the headache of a leader who is facing federal corruption charges, including offering the Senate seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama to the highest bidder.

Still, Blagojevich spokesman Lucio Guerrero said the governor had no plans to quit.

I wonder if Shot Rod will plead not guilty by reason of insanity. Poor little Rahmbo. Not too good for the Obamassiah either.
