OBAMA – The First “Tell”
Throughout the election process, image is everything. Now, post-election, the Electorate looks for signals of capacities beyond the ability to get elected. We peer in, looking for tells of what an Obama Presidency will mean. Has there been a tell? … Did we miss it?

 There was little satisfaction in The Pacific Gate Post having... »
I Got Nowhere Else to Go
So, what can I expect from an Obama Presidency, a Reid Senate, and a Pelosi House? The elimination of the Bush tax cuts will immediately raise my income taxes by 24 percent. This increase will impact our household income, based on my wife’s salary, and my retirement pension. The Obama tax plan will increase the number... »
How Many Rights Are Democrats Willing to Forfeit?
With the announcement that Hillary Clinton is abandoning her quest for the Oval Office the Democrat National Committee (DNC) – and specifically the DNC’s Rules and Bylaws Committee – has effectively selected the candidate for their party. I say selected because, by construct, the decision making process was taken away from the party faithful... »
Loyalty to Self Over Country
Like it or not, the reality is that we live in an extremely self-centered society. If you take issue with this statement just watch how pedestrians enter into crosswalks during rush hour.

Barack Obama: It’s More About His Choices
Many of the more conservative talking heads – and even some on the Left side of the aisle who support Hillary Clinton – are espousing their concern about Barack Obama’s “associations.†They point to Obama’s spiritual advisor, Jeremiah Write, and note his “friendly†relationship with unrepentant domestic terrorists William Ayers and his partner Bernadine... »
Change Doesn’t Come by Electing a President
We have heard during this presidential election cycle – ad nauseam – how our country is in dire need of “change.†We are promised by each of the candidates that they are the ones – the only ones – who can bring about this much needed change. Of course, this is all disingenuous politicking.... »
Stepping Back from the Conservative Abyss
“If you are looking at substance rather than if there is an ‘R’ or a ‘D’ after his name, manifestly, if he’s our candidate, then Hillary is going to be our girl, because she’s more conservative than he is…” – Ann Coulter on Hannity & Colmes If Conservatives and Republicans don’t squelch their anger toward... »
