Mr. Doug Wildfoerster, 82-year old Navy Veteran of World War II, has written a Letter to the Editor of the Salt Lake Tribune calling for the Impeachment of the President. What is going on now is disgusting.

Yesterday Emery County Clerk Bruce Funk was locked out of his office by the county commissioners. Why was this elected official told to resign, and then locked out of his offices? Because he dared to hold the state's new Diebold e-voting machines to the standards laid down in state law. Read More

I happened to watch "The Fall of Saigon" last night on PBS. It was a re-edited version of episode 12 of "Vietnam: A Television History" the groundbreaking 13-part 1983 WGBH Boston TV documentary. I noted that the people in political power at the time were in fear of the nation's press. The Pentagon Papers were being published by Daniel Ellsberg in the NYT, WaPo, and 17 other newspapers. And of course Woodward and Bernstein were working their magic at the WaPo. The White House and Congress were genuinely afraid of the truth coming out.

The age of investigative journalism in that mold is dead. There is not one single reporter working for any national news outlet with the balls, or the editorial freedom to investigate anything. Not even the least claim. What we have now in this country is a news media corps that is entirely devoted to "He said/she said" journalism. They are not interested in facts, or truth, they are merely interested in quotes.

I don't want to sound Anti-Christian here. I am not a Christian, I believe myself to be a Deist, much like the founders. I also don't want to put down Creationism, because I believe in a Creation. However, I also believe in the theory of evolution. Joseph Farah and the forces in the religious right do not. Read More
