WAPO HOUSE CONSERVATIVE: HILLARY IS THE GROWN-UP AMERICA NEEDS [Jennifer Rubin]
Powerline ^ | July 13, 2016 | Paul Mirengoff

Posted on 07/13/2016 11:19:21 AM PDT by C19fan

Jennifer Rubin is the author of “Right Turn,” a conservative space in the Washington Post. Some on the right question whether Rubin is a conservative, but I don’t I believe I ever have.

I was surprised, therefore, by Rubin’s latest offering. It’s a called (in the print edition) “The need for grown-ups.”

The “grown-ups” to whom Rubin refers are Theresa May, who will be Britain’s next prime minister, and Hillary Clinton. Her thesis is that the two women have the steady hands needed to pick up the wreckage wrought by Brexit and Donald Trump, respectively.

Hillary’s what Rubin needs to keep her donor cash coming.

Wreckage from Donald Trump, the guy running for the nomination from the other party?

Hubris, it's a liberal thing.

Dinosaur Media is dying. Pretty soon Jeff Bezos will have her moonlighting picking orders in some warehouse.

Rubin is not a conservative. Not even close.

From the same "conservative" house you-know-what who shilled tirelessly for both Juan McCain and Mittens Romney, while simultaneously slandering Sarah Palin with a monomaniacal regularity.

Wapo’s idea of a conservative is just left of Michael Moore.

“Some on the right question whether Rubin is a conservative, but I don’t I believe I ever have.”

I never questioned that.

I always knew she wasn’t.

For a while her column could have been called Demean and Slander Ted Cruz.

I haven’t seem much by her recently but my impression is Trump has become the object of her obsession.

I’m sure Little Jebbie still thinks Rubin was going to support him.

Like George Will, Rubin’s a “house conservative”: like the black woman (who could or couldn’t type) that progressive firms put at a desk close to their front doors.

Hey, jerkoff. Grownups take responsibility for their actions, tell the truth, and face the consequences when they've done something wrong. The next time Her Heinous Hillary Rotten Klintoon does any of the three will be the first time she's ever done any of the three.

First, Rubin has hardly any idea how Theresa May will govern the United Kingdom. Rubin’s superficial comments are based on her reading the newspaper and her conversations with her friends about May, which are all superficial accounts.

Second, I guess we can count Rubin among those who really don’t care that Hillary is as corrupt and lawless as they come. She’s been around a while. She may not have done anything other than be Bill Clinton’s wife and gotten appointed to various offices because of it, but she’s been around.

The only thing Hillary is good at is being a crook and getting away with it.

Rubin obviously has NO idea what it takes to run something huge.

I recently finished Gary Byrne’s book....Hillary is a monster...in a marriage made in hell.
