Summers is good!

at manipulating newsman.

This is a piece of garbage:

Note that, in all of the disputes except one, Summers was allegedly arguing for the more liberal position... I just can't believe that. The other thing is that Geithner, Romer, and Goolsbee are all basically centrists, so one wouldn't really expect any big ideological debates between them. The issue is w/ the Bernstein's, the Volcker's, the Stiglitz's and the Krugman's being cut off.

And they are cut off.
