“We, of course, respect the right of The Washington Post to employ whatever writers it pleases — even Jennifer Rubin,” reads the letter addressed to the Post’s editorial board from more than three dozen conservatives. “However, we ask for the sake of intellectual honesty that the Post cease to identify her as in any way ‘conservative.’
“Given the Post’s standing as an important platform for political opinion in our nation’s capital, we also respectfully request that you consider hiring a voice who can eloquently and effectively defend the positions held by our President, his party, and the millions of voters who elected him,” the letter continues. “We would be happy to provide recommendations.”
“In truth, it is nearly impossible to discern any conservatism in Rubin’s contemporary writing,” the letter adds, accusing Rubin of reversing her previous positions on climate change, gun control, Middle East foreign policy, tax cuts, immigration,and abortion.
