- Robert A. George (pundit)
Robert A George is an editorial writer for the "New York Post" and a conservative blogger and pundit. He was born in Trinidad and lived in the United Kingdom before moving to the United States. A graduate of St. John's College in Annapolis, Maryland, George worked for the Republican National Committee and, following the 1994 midterm elections, Speaker of the House of Representatives Newt Gingrich.
In addition to his position with the "New York Post", George also has appeared on the CNN public affairs program "Take 5" and regularly appears on other political affairs programs. George has written for conservative magazines such as "National Review" and "Reason", though he has not written for National Review since publishing an article in The New Republic that he could not vote for the reelection of George W Bush.

George was one of the first conservatives to call for the resignation of Trent Lott as Senate Majority Leader following comments made by Lott at the birthday party of retiring Senator Strom Thurmond.

George shares a name with a well known Princeton University professor and ethicist. Because they often wrote for the same publications, it became standard to refer to George as Robert A. George and to the Princeton professor as Robert P. George.
