The Daily Gouge

It’s Tuesday, February 7th, 2012….and here’s The Gouge! First up, a scathing but, as far as we can tell, accurate indictment of the surprise expressed by America’s Catholic hierarchy at having awakened with fleas after spending over 30 years lying with dogs; Christopher Badeaux writing in RedState.com, courtesy of Tim Lester: Excommunicate the Bishops   […]

It’s Sunday, February 5th, 2012….and is there anything better than seeing the Pats (Cheaters!) go down at the hands of a team that was one game away from missing the playoffs?!? Now, here’s the Gouge! First up, courtesy of George Lawlor, the Chicago Tribune‘s John Kass analyzes The Obamao’s incredibly patent attempt to kiss and […]

It’s Friday, February 3rd, 2012….and here’s The Gouge! In a break with tradition, we lead off the last Gouge of the week with the “When You Lie Down With Dogs….or Asses….You Wake Up With Fleas” segment, and a political cartoon that perfectly portrays the perfidy of Progressive politics: Meanwhile, while doing one thing in furtherance […]

It’s Thursday, February 2nd, Groundhog Day 2012….and if we don’t want to see the same fours years played over and over and over again for the rest of our lives, someone in the GOP establishment needs to provide some adult supervision to this comedy of errors. Now, here’s The Gouge! First up, breaking news from […]

We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming for this Daily Gouge Special Report:   Can anyone recall one other time, just ONE, that a White House Press Secretary read a prepared response at a press conference? Team Tick-Tock’s opened a very large can of very ill-tempered worms….and it’s up to us to make them rue the […]

It’s Wednesday, February 1st, 2012….but before we begin, this just in: Romney Rebounds With Win in Florida   Not a win; a good, old-fashioned ass-whupping.  And you know what?  Given Newt’s descent to the level of trailer trash, i.e., the claim Mitt tried to take kosher food out of Holocaust survivors mouths, which is absolutely […]

It’s Tuesday, January 31st, 2012….and here’s The Gouge! First up, William McGurn offers his input as to…. How Mitt Can Finish Off Newt Those of us who believed a primary fight would toughen Romney up have little to show for it.   It looks like it’s all over in Florida. Even before the voting has […]

It’s Monday, January 30th, 2012….but before we begin, gas prices have risen rather sharply in past few weeks.  Can anyone seriously doubt had there been a Republican incumbent in the White House, this would have been the lead story for every MSM outlet across the country? Now, here’s The Gouge! First up, since we’re on […]

It’s Friday, January 27th, 2012….but before we begin, we thought we’d share some comments frequent contributor Bill Meisen made in response to yesterday’s item detailing The Obamao’s dust-up with Jan Brewer: Here’s what Obama said Tuesday night [In the Misstatement of Disunion speech]: “Most of Al Qaida’s top lieutenants have been defeated. The Taliban’s momentum […]

It’s Thursday, January 26th, 2012….and we begin this edition with a question: much as we appreciated the message, why was the Republican response to Obama’s Misstatement of Disunion delivered by Mitch Daniels, a speaker as exciting as drying paint, rather than the likes of Marco Rubio or Alan West?
