The Daily Gouge

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? Sometimes we wonder if the GOP […]

It’s Wednesday, January 25th, 2012….and it’s now 1,001 days since the Dimocratic-controlled Senate passed a budget. Now, here’s The Gouge! First up on the mid-week edition, a brief bit of commentary on the President’s Misstatement of the Union speech from Daily Gouge White House correspondent Vinny Gambini: And no, we didn’t watch it; like Bill […]

It’s Tuesday, January 24th, 2012….and here’s The Gouge! Leading off the top of the today’s order, two pieces of prose, the first by Bret Stephens, the second from Ed Morrissey detailing why Newt’s supporters might as well be rats following the Pied Piper….and Romney’s acolytes aren’t advocating for anything different: The GOP Deserves to Lose […]

It’s Monday, January 23rd, 2012….and as we’ve plans for Sunday evening, we’re taking the Monday edition to press a little early.  But before we begin, here’s a link to a petition forwarded by Bill Meisen: http://dickmorris.rallycongress.com/5905/sign-petition-keystone-pipeline/ We felt it well worth the time to complete, despite our emails being forwarded to three Dimocrats possessed of […]

It’s Friday, January 20th, 2012….and here’s The Gouge! First up on the last Gouge of the week, Kimberly Strassel relates….
