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

New Tone: Anti-Tea Party Protester Yells Profanity at 14-Year-Old Girl

(By Katie Pavlich, Townhall.com) - As always, anti-tea party and pro-union protesters are keeping it classy in Madison.

I applaud the young lady for her courage and for avoiding the sheeple mentality many of her young peers have.
