 Donald Luskin on Stephen Friedman on NRO Financial
The stock market understands that Friedman would be the worst possible choice for that post — both in terms of his policy convictions and his political convictions.
Friedman is vice-chair of the Concord Coalition, a self-styled "grass roots" organization dedicated to root-canal federal budget discipline — and one that has vehemently opposed all initiatives by the Bush administration to cut taxes or stimulate the economy.
Indeed, Friedman may be the separated Siamese twin of Clinton Treasury secretary Robert Rubin — the two men shared the helm at Goldman Sachs, and seem to share most of the same economic policy convictions — including the demonstrably false belief that deficits cause high interest rates.
