5. Word of the Day: Bully Pulpit~ "The Presidency, when used by the President to inspire or moralize. Whenever the President seeks to rouse the American people, he is said to be speaking from the bully pulpit. When the term first came into use, 'bully' was slang for 'first rate' or 'admirable' (Scholastic)."

Try saying THAT 5 times fast!
