Jennifer Rubin is the Washington Post‘s “right” columnist, though many people would dispute that designation.
Rubin has made no secret of her Trump hatred, which came through today on MSNBC.
Rubin branded several of Trump’s cabinet and high level nominees “ignoramuses.”
“I wish I could say that Ben Carson is the only person who...
Former WaPo Ombudsman Patrick Pexton wrote an “Open Letter” to Jeff Bezos upon buying WaPo.
The letter is getting attention because Politico picked up on one piece of advice from Pexton to Bezos, Fire Jennifer Rubin:
“She doesn’t travel within a hundred miles of Post standards [LOL – my add],” Pexton argues. “She...
What an ironic statement from Jennifer Rubin (emphasis mine):
It is awfully tempting for pundits to use people and personal conflicts as stick figures in a polemic play reaffirming one’s preexisting impressions and biases. That’s certainly been the case in the Richard Grenell case….
The best, fairest and most thoughtful words have been written...
Jennifer Rubin, the “right” blogger at The Washington Post, gained fame throughout the primaries by obsessively skewering each not-Romney who rose in the polls, even not-Romneys like Rick Santorum she had praised when convenient to use against another not-Romney.
Because of her platform at WaPo and her designation as WaPo’s “right” blogger, Rubin...
I knew I shouldn’t have looked back.
I have not read Jennifer Rubin in weeks. She has become so odious in her Romneyquest that reading her posts is like sipping poison; it doesn’t kill you but it makes you nauseated.
Every time I read one of her insulting pieces it reminds me of the...
Oh, how times have changed.
They built up reasonable solid conservative Rick from the Northern Virginia suburbs when it was necessary to stop Newt, but now that he’s a threat to Mitt, he’s Ricky Bobby from Deer Hunter, PA.
The Drudge headline today, linking to this:
All those nice “right” things (masterfully cataloged by this commenter at...
Being the mainstream media means making birth control an election issue, then wondering aloud why birth control is an election issue.
Disingenuous Tweet of the Day:
The tweet links to an article titled Birth control as election issue? Why?
The issue of birth control has suddenly become an obsession of the 2012 presidential campaign. To...
Jennifer Rubin, the “right” blogger at The Washington Post and incessant Romney promoter, repeatedly has lashed out at Newt Gingrich with truly vile language unbecoming a writer at a major newspaper.
At 9:00 a.m. this morning, when Rubin thought Donald Trump would be endorsing Newt, here is what Rubin wrote in a post titled Egomaniacs R...
It’s really no surprise. As Mitt Romney has faltered from inevitability to modest favorite, a chorus of pro-Romney voices in the media and Republican Party is insisting that if Newt is the nominee, we not only lose the presidency we also lose the House and fail to take back the Senate.
It’s...
Alternative headline: Dear Iowa: You are being played like a fiddle.
I hate to admit it, but there is a large amount of truth in this analysis by Roger Simon of Politico, Mitt don’t need no surges:
If Mitt...
Jennifer Rubin at The Washington Post has a post today in which she contrasts Mitt Romney’s non-pandering to the Jewish community with Newt Gingrich’s supposed pandering.
She highlights Jonathan Pollard, an American convicted of spying for Israel, and whether he should be granted clemency. She quotes Romney as saying:
On the topic of...
I have linked to posts by Caroline Glick since the early days of this blog. Glick is one of the clearest voices on the dangers to Israel and the highly negative effects of Obama administration policy.
Glick has weighed in on Newt’s comments about the Palestinians (h/t LukeHandCool in the Tip Line).
Glick...
Q. Who was the last person to actually cut government?
As pointed out at C4P:
Rush is correct. Newt was indeed the last person to substantially cut Government and execute reform.
However; what folks seem to confuse that with is the idea that Newt actually “cut” budgets. That was never true. He cut Government,...
I’ve posted about “unknown unknowns” before, as it is a structure I use in class to discuss how to build a case. At a press conference about Iraq Donald Rumsfeld famously said:
“[T]here are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to...
Mitt Romney appeared last night for an interview with Brett Baier (video below). Too bad Brett didn’t ask Romney why Romney refused to appear before the full panel on Center Seat, like the other candidates have done.
My biggest reaction is that it’s bizarre that Romney refuses to admit he made a mistake on Romneycare and...
Jennifer Rubin needs an intervention. Someone needs to convince her to stop beclowning herself in the Mittquest, Gingrich: The phony intellectual:
When many in the mainstream media and far too many conservatives who should know better swoon over [Newt’s] pronouncements, the cannier on the right and left justifiably roll their eyes in disgust....
The post in question was limited to the following matter of respect:
I don’t always agree with Jennifer Rubin, the not-liberal blogger at The Washington Post, who used to blog at Commentary.
But I respect her because unlike the Stockholm Syndrome suffering not-liberal columnists at The New...
