‘April, Calm Down’: Robert Gibbs Compares Reporter to Bratty Kid
"Now see? I do this with my son and that’s what happens."

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.

Townhall.com: It's time for the "imagine if Bush's" WH Press Secretary (your choice) would have made this statement to April Ryan, reporter for American Urban Radio? Would the response have sounded like crickets from the MSM and the Left? I am happy that Gibbs can make inappropriate references to his child when describing the behavior of a WH reporter without the Left or the Right using the race or gender card, but I wish liberals would afford conservatives the same courtesy.
I think that Gibbs made that comment to April Ryan because April hit a sore spot that the Prez and Prezette may not want to "share" with the public. Who is this WH maven of social affairs?
