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

Cindy McCain Takes Part in Pro-Gay Marriage Photo Shoot

Cindy McCain's position stands in contrast to Sen. John McCain's, who opposes gay marriage.

(By Hollie McKay, FOXNews.com) - Over the past year, dozens of celebrities from Kristin Cavallari to Steve-O to Kim Zolciak have posed for the "NOH8" photo campaign in an effort to overturn Proposition 8 and legalize same sex marriage in California.

The latest high-profile figure to take part in the initiative is a little more surprising: Sen. John McCain's wife, Cindy.

"I couldn't be more proud of my mother for posing for the NOH8 campaign," daughter Meghan McCain tweeted on Wednesday morning. "I think more Republicans need to start taking a stand for and civil rights in this country and set the example that this is not a partisan issue."
