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.

From 'RedState':
It is rather appalling, based on what we already know, that the President of the United States would only talk to his commanding general once in the seventy days the general has been engaged.
This is a sign of priorities. The President has spoken over 100 times on health care. It has consumed him in a way critics say Iraq consumed President Bush.
There is a significant difference though. President Bush won in Iraq with his fixation. Barack Obama is losing on the health care front and now looks set to lose Afghanistan too.
Perhaps Obama needs to recalibrate his focus and attention. Patton was right that America won’t tolerate a loser. And thus far Obama is losing on most every front.
But then, I want Obama to fail except in Afghanistan.
