Lost in all this is SANTELLI. He PERSONALLY started this by calling out all mortgage owners as losers! He then compounded it by then canceling his interview on the Daily Show to answer for it.

That's what really started Daily Show's coverage of how the ORACLES (such as Santelli) of CNBC had been over-leveraging the "positives" of the market all this time.

The real loser here is Santelli — hinding behind CNBC and Cramer.

While most industries are facing the worst conditions in 70 years, the market for business journalists is booming, who investors increasingly look to for advice on how to save their last dollar. During the first two months of this year the financial network CNBC, a subsidiary of General Electric (GE), averaged 282,000 home viewers, compared to 264,000 last year and 233,000 in 2007. The financial crisis is boosting profits there, much as the Gulf War did for CNN in 1991. The network is now increasingly becoming the story itself, offering a rallying point for criticism of the Obama administration as it plays to its overwhelmingly conservative audience. Anti bailout comments by futures markets reporter Rick Santelli, who called those behind on mortgages “losers”, sparked nationwide “tea party” rallies. The theatrical Jim Cramer accused Obama of causing “the greatest wealth destruction of any US president,” inviting a White House counterattack. Convincing people they are sick, and then offering to sell them the medicine for a cure, has always been a great business strategy. http://www.madhedgefundtrader.com.

Stewart is brilliant and hilarious. But it really annoys me that he never lets anyone finish a sentence. Colbert does the same thing. They'd be even better if they'd show their guests a bit more courtesy while making them look ridiculous.

i find it pathetic that so many people want to continue to justify the crap of the bush cudlow hype of the economy. cudlow wuth his bush does not get credit for the good economy or the crap about the cinderella economy. what did that ever mean? the point they were all making is that short selling should be illegal since it uses my stock to bet against me. paycheck is a great example of that. short sellers run to the SEC and demand an investigation on no facts. but the act of doing it drops the stock and they make money. and the SEC needs to be expanded to go after all companies that cook their books and then insiders sell out before the stock crashes like veriphone who has yet to be investigated.

i am begining to beleive the Chinese have the right idea. put a bullet in their head.

Bush should be in jail with madoff

"I find it pathetic that so many folks follow the giberish of a comedic hack on the Daly Show.

Anyone with an ounce of brains would know what Cramer’s show is, and isn’t.

If you can’t tell maybe you need to start watching less television and start reading more.

It will expand you knowledge base."

I believe you need to practice what you preach. Maybe then you wouldn't make errors in a four line response.

Savaged: "Like Michael said yesterday, and has said for years, people like this couldn’t exist without a team of script writers and a teleprompter."

Huh?!? Read the following and try to prove to me that Jon CAN’T think fast on his feet:

Cramer: Well, I think that your goal should always be to try to expose that there is no easy money – I mean, I wish I had found Madoff.

Stewart: But the show is called "Fast Money".

Cramer: I think that people … there's a market for it and we give it to them.

Stewart: There's a market for cocaine and hookers!

Brilliant!!!

Although Jon Stewart makes his living as a comedian, his show is supposed to be a fake news show. However, the "real" news is really the joke which he doesn't think is funny and calls them out when he sees fit do so. Kudos to Jon Stewart!

For those of you who see the US political system as left (DEM) and right (REP), need to re-study your political ideologies. The US political system is nowhere near left of center and never has been.
