Nothing wrong with this post, other than it is missing the author: Jennifer Rubin.

Without attribution to her, it makes it look like it’s an “official, voice of the Washington Post” editorial - which would be too much to ask for.

Anyone know which way Rubin usually runs? Is she their “house conservative”, or does she usually run more liberal? If the latter, this could be a sign of a dam breaking....

Oh, never mind on the “political bent” part: the title of her column is “Right Turn”.

(Abuse button hit, in a friendly way, on the article to get Jennifer Rubin in as the author for the thread header....)

Here is your answer as written at the link to her column:

“Jennifer Rubin writes the Right Turn blog for The Post, offering reported opinion from a conservative perspective.”

On the top of the article it says:
Right View
No dam breaking here.
Spaniards are having their siesta. Here’s the run down fro the London Telegraph:
Now Spain’s Parliament won’t vote on key changes to the European Union’s bailout funds until September because the legislature is in the midst of its summer recess, a Spanish Finance Ministry official has said.

21.00 Obama’s doing the rounds. He has called Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi to discuss the global debt crisis, the Italian government said.

“The situation on financial markets in the United States and Europe was at the centre of the cordial conversation,” the government said in a statement.

Jennifer Rubin is conservative. She was with Commentary Magazine, and only moved to the Post at the beginning of this year.

Jennifer Rubin’s column at th ePost is called the Right Turn. She’s the house conservative. She isn’t another David Brooks either, she’s consistent.
