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.

Wednesday Funnies :-)

Jay Leno:

President Obama has found a way to quickly close Guantanamo Bay. He's going to turn it into a Pontiac dealership.

Before she left for China, reporters repeatedly questioned House Speaker Nancy Pelosi about her claim the CIA lied to her. But Pelosi remained tight-lipped. She also remained tight-foreheaded and tight-eyelided.

In fact, before she left, Pelosi told the press she's not going to have any further comments on this whole controversy about the CIA. She says no more talking. She's not going to say another word. Why can't we get this deal for Joe Biden?

Pelosi said that the CIA misleads us all the time. You know, unlike Congress.

The big story is the Supreme Court. President Obama has found his nominee. She is Federal Appeals Judge Sonia Sotomayor. A Latino woman. You know what that means -- Ruth Bader Ginsburg will no longer be the hot chick on the court.
