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

Cat Fight: Morning Joe and Mika Bare Claws Over Couric, Limbaugh

(By Mark Finkelstein, NewsBusters.org) - Is a cat fight strictly a feminine affair, or can a man and woman engage in one? Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski certainly seemed to offer up a good example of the genre today. The two traded feline fisticuffs on 'Morning Joe'.

Scarborough went first, swiping at Katie Couric for having cavorted on a Miami beach with her beau before departing for Egypt. Mika later retaliated, archly musing about the number of Limbaugh's marriages during a segment featuring Elton John's comments on El Rushbo.
