Family Values, indeed.
Rudolph Giuliani’s wife takes to the airwaves tonight in an interview the campaign hopes can put to rest questions about their public courtship and life together as presidential candidate and wife.
Judith Giuliani’s interview with Barbara Walters is set to air tonight, one week after disclosures that she has been married three times, [...]

Keeping to a steady theme today, considering who is noshing over at the Harmsen Homestead this evening.
Republican presidential hopeful Rudolph Giuliani stood by embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on Wednesday, saying the Bush administration appears to have done nothing wrong in firing eight U.S. attorneys.
“I don’t think the information that’s already out makes it clear [...]

Giuliani said he was aware of the safety concerns with the proposed nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain and “somebody would have to take a good look at that.”
When pressed, he did not rule out the repository, however.

Romney began his term as Massachusetts governor in 2003 with a view of immigration reflecting his background as chief executive officer of Bain & Co., a Boston-based venture-capital firm. Many lobbies representing U.S. businesses favor guest- worker programs and say that without one, such industries as agriculture, restaurants and hotels might face labor shortages.

So, I’m listening to the Doug Wright show right now, and I’m suffering from a fit of ironic chuckling.
Doug is poised on his soapbox, “good grief”-ing left and right about the amount of pork, and non military spending, included in the current spending bill. Seriously.
I’m not a fan of Bill Riders, never have been [...]

This is a revealing article I read by Mark Benjamin on Salon.com earlier today. I’ve been seeing the beginning of Mass Media attention on it, but, when there are so many other, easier to explain targets for the media to focus their attention on, this sort of thing, no matter how important, slips through the [...]

Seriously … it’s pretty odd how giddy I am about this.
I’ve always wanted one of these goofy things.

I started my new job today.
It’s terribly exciting and the building is incredible. I have more room than my previous digs by a factor, I believe, of 7. It might be smaller than seven, but, the ceilings here are about twenty five feet from the floor.
All in all, this has been a pretty good first [...]

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
May the rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

If anyone actually cares, I’ll try to have this thing fixed over the weekend.

I’m enjoying Rebbecca Walsh’s new hat as a columnist at the Trib. I really am. She has a good written voice for a columnist, as I’ve said many times before.
I have to wonder, however, how she can write an entire column about Booster Seat Legislation in the Utah State House and fail, utterly, to mention [...]

Blogs are easily one of the more misunderstood communicative missives existing in the world today. I have no idea what, if anything, the overwhelming support from Utah’s blogging community will have for Sarah (especially since her higher ups are from out of town), but, I’m popping this up anyway.
Sarah has been a great friend to [...]
