Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

From the 'Fox News All-Stars':

Well, he was out of order. It was a lack of decorum. He shouldn't have done it.

I suspect if it had been a different Joe Wilson, the husband of the outed CIA agent [Valerie Plame] who was a liberal hero and martyr in the previous administration — if he had been in the House and he'd yelled "You liar!" to President Bush, the liberals would have carried him on their shoulders out of the hall as a hero speaking truth to power.

Nonetheless, even besides the hypocrisy, he [Wilson] shouldn't have done it. He apologized.

This is obviously a Democratic stunt as a way to take attention away from the health-care debate they are losing. And every day that they don't have to speak about the specifics of a plan — and the more it is examined, the more it loses support — is a good day for the Democrats. So this was a good afternoon for the Democrats.
