The New York Republican Party's top lawyer has been arrested on a charge of attacking his wife, The Post has learned.
Jeffrey Buley, 44, was arrested and arraigned in town court in Bethlehem, an Albany suburb where the couple owns a home, last month after being accused by his wife, Cheryl Ritchko-Buley, 40, of a drunken assault, official records show.

What a wuss.
New York Republican = Democrat anywhere else.
BTW, I have a double-barrelled first name, and a second name with an O' in it. So if I had a double-barrelled second name I'd have to get them to make the little lines on where you sign your signature bigger! *L*
As it stands in work my name has 17 characters...so much so, that they had to redesign the single column size on our newspaper to take my by-line! *LOL*
You're incorrigible. But of course, that's why I like you!!!!
Fear is the operative word there. It's all born of a deep seated neurosis stemming from the fear that they will lose their identity. Which makes it glaringly obvious that they feel no deep connection with their husbands in terms of their identity. It is also a sign of pretty low self-esteem to think that one's professional reputation hangs on a name and not one's work. If you are any good at what you do in the first place, if anyone respects your work to begin with that is, they'll learn your new name. If you had an ounce of pride in your husband/marriage you'd make darn sure they did.
I got it now!
Thanks closet freeper.
I didn't marry until I was 32.
I don't understand fellow conservatives that can't appreciate women who've accomplished a lot under their maiden names, and continue to use that name in a hyphenated fashion after they're married.
Be it scientific publications, televisions shows, you name it; I believe it's legitimate to let the world know of your accomplishments under your hyphenated, or maiden, name.
They only do that for big time journalists like you :-)
Aw fer cryin out loud ....just get rid of your maiden name and take your husband's name like most normal women who are married always have. Jeeeze, this womens lib crap kills me.
"He was so drunk he thought he was a Democrat."
Now if he was a Dim Sinator from the state of Massholes, I could understand.
What one gal I know has done is to use her maiden name as her middle name for her bylines - she figures another couple of months will allow her to drop it altogether.
I goofed, plain and simple. However, it doesn't bother my husband in the least, and as a stay at home mom I can't justify the time and money it would take for me to get rid of the stupid little hyphen in my name.
If someone is that bent out of shape about it I will be more than happy to change it, providing that person pays the bill. I doubt that will happen.
I don't like writing 15 characters, so my signature is a scribbel. Even better that it's impossible to forge unless someone's a doctor.
My last name could have been even longer. If my surname wasn't changed a few times it would have been O'hUallachain.
What a wimp. But how fashionable! He's a "New AGE" man! But are they gonna be able to fit that long name on his Ladies Home Journal subscription label?
You rock.
:-)
Could you imagine me with two first names though, and a double-barrelled second name? Signing a cheque would be like writing a thesis! *LOL*
Maybe I should just use my Gregg shorthand for those things, and become like The Artist Formerly Known as Prince, and use a squiggle! *LOL*
I'm sorry, but I find that funny!!!!
My first name alone has 9 letters.
Also, most people prefer my maiden name, because most of them can't pronounce my married name when they see it written. And they can't spell it properly if they only hear it.
Merry Christmas to you too Gabz,
I'm glad you have a husband that sounds as wonderful as mine! (<;
I'm happy you found your soulmate. I wish that for each and every one of us - sure makes life a whole lot happier - and bearable!

Hey, if I insisted on using my Irish name I'd be Áine Mhaire Ní Choncubhair. People can't even pronounce that! *LOL*
Bite me.
Bravo!
