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

Top 5 Brawl Videos of the Month…So Far

(By Jonathon M. Seidl, The Blaze) - You may have noticed that recently there have been a string of “brawl” videos streaking across the internet. We’ve noticed it, and we periodically feature them. It’s hard to pinpoint the cause. Are the fights the result of increasing disrespect, unrest, or the death of reticence. Or, has the age of the easily-accessible video camera only allowed us to capture fights that have always taken place?

We’re not sure. But what we do know is that the videos exist. Some of you might watch them because of the shock value, while others of you might watch because you think the videos are evidence of a larger problem. And for others, the reason might be a combination of both. Whatever the reason, it seems February has already played host to a number of these videos. Instead of bringing them to you one-by-one, we thought we would feature the “top” ones of the month — so far. Here they are.
