re: #118 Lidane
I’ve seen complaints from wingnuts about how we’re not using our bully pulpit.
WTF? Using a bully pulpit means that you’re giving ultimatums. These dipshits seem to forget that the Russians have nukes too. We can’t just waltz in guns blazing. We need a cool head and a reasoned response.
Actually, I think the original usage of bully pulpit was just that the office of president gave one a terrific or wonderful platform to have one’s thoughts heard. Not that one was doing any bullying.
