A former State Department official under George W. Bush will lead the ex-president's think tank at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. James K. Glassman was named the executive director of the George W. Bush Institute on Thursday. Glassman was an undersecretary of state for public diplomacy and public affairs in 2008. In a statement, Bush said he was delighted that Glassman is joining the think tank "to develop a world-class institute." Glassman held top editing and management positions at Roll Call, Atlantic Monthly, U.S. News & World Report and New Republic. The independent institute will be part of Bush's presidential center at SMU, along with a library and museum run by the National Archives.

James K. Glassman (born January 1, 1947 in Washington, D.C.) is an American libertarian conservative editorialist, journalist and author. He is president of the World Growth Institute, which promotes global economic development. Glassman is known for his market analyses and commentary on economics and equities investing. As a syndicated columnist, Glassman's articles have appeared in newspapers around the world, including the Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Forbes, The Atlantic Monthly, Reader's Digest, and The Times Literary Supplement (London). He was co-author of Dow 36,000, published in 1999, which erroneously predicted that the stock market was greatly undervalued and would at least triple within a few years. On December 11, 2007 Glassman was nominated by President George W. Bush to replace Karen Hughes as the Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy.[1] On September 3, 2009, it was announced that Glassman will head the as-yet-unnamed public policy institute at the George W. Bush Presidential Library, which will be located at Southern Methodist University.[2]

no such thing. a libertarian is a libertarian. there are not polar extremes. one believes in liberty or one does not.
Another over rated Jew officiating at a Christian school. Good god -- Bush does not have a clue!
In other words, this guy was knowingly part of the trick to suck money out of rubes into the banking, credit, real estate, InvestmentsInc, and WallStreet stock schemes? Sounds like a valid assumption to me. Bleed you dry before the crash.
