Why does no one get this??? This is so simple that even I get it and I have no idea what a bull and a bear has to do with the financial market or why no one sweeps the floor there. It looks as frightening and unorganized as it's suddenly been revealed to be. 
So.... YES. Jon Stewart OWNED Cramer and if you listened to the previously posted uncensored clips I put up and you REALLY listened all the way to the end you heard Cramer finally cave and start offering some pathetic excuses and sniveling apologies. He even asks Jon Stewart to tell him what to do that he can change. At one point Jon loosely quotes the Carley Simon by saying "This song isn't about you" CNBC is offended and scandalized. But it isn't about them either. No network nor reporter has cornered the market on irresponsibility in reporting but many have come close. There is a little thing called freedom of press. Does that give them a right to choose sides and print lies and twisted scare tactics about our government officials and making wild guesses on what is a good investment only to say "oops" the next day when people have lost money they can ill afford to lose. Who am I to say that President Obama is succeeding or failing? He promised us a lot of things. Maybe some of them were naive, maybe some were impossible, maybe he's read the deep dark secrets of the previous administrations and is thinking "What the HELL????". My humble opinion is that pleasing the Republicans in general is less likely than stopping all discord in the Middle East. Americans don't know where to turn. We are scared and we all wonder where and when we got to this place. We were so busy looking at who was 'palling around with terrorists' and who was going to end this senseless war we never stopped to ask questions about the people reporting this stuff. Who governs THEM???
When our new President won, we all wait with bated breath to see what he was going to do. He's been a busy man, and as far as I can see he's actually accomplished a great deal, but everyone's "honey do" list is different and many are disappointed. World peace, stabilizing the economy, and overturning laws that would make Niccolo Machiavelli shudder shouldn't take this long. He's been in office for like TWO WHOLE MONTHS!!! Personally, I think a lot the pain in the butt Republican's need to be bound and gagged and thrown in Gitmo. Quite a few Democrats as well. I'd start with McCain, but like with so many people who are bitter and small shells of humanity he's pretty much discredited himself with his foul temper, foul mouth and truly inferior IQ (hmmm does that sounds familiar??). The Obama Administration can officially throw out a song as well: Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire." President Obama needs to (IMHO)ditch the bipartisan efforts and remind this country that Republican and Democrat is a division right now. We are Americans, and we've always proven to be strong enough to overcome if we work together. To wish for the failure of our President is to wish for the failure of our country and we could do with less of that. Who do we believe? Who can we trust? One thing has unfortunately stayed the same through the change of Administrations. Our tax money is being used and we really have no say in the matter. AIG has people contractually owed millions of dollars of bonuses??? And we are paying for it??. These people who have lied and stolen from us should be imprisoned, not rewarded. We have one place that we COULD go for honesty. One group of people we could trust. The media. Not the paparazzi type media who obsessively stalks celebrities and consider that news. Not a financial show on a network touting itself to be the place to go for good financial advice that throws pies and deifies it's host and has audio effects like a cheesy radio station. If these reporters actually have access to information that informs us of financial dishonesty they should be there to tell us. To help us out. I don't care where Paris Hilton is right now, or whether Lindsay Lohan is dating a man or a woman this week. I want to know who to trust and once again, Jon Stewart is the one that's telling me that. These "serious" journalists calling him a "comedian hack" has real problems. He's proven over and over again that his mind is quicker than theirs is. He remains calm and never touts himself as anything other that what he is. THAT is honesty. Sucks to be them.
Update to Trump Era Newcomers
Until I understand this EU Cookie law better I will leave Google's complimentary notice that this blog uses Blogger and Google cookies. These include Google Analytics and AdSense cookies.
Also, I feel that I should warn that this blog was started in the style of and in response to the toxic commentary of Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. I don't mince words and the people who cannot see common sense in my words or are deliberately uninformed may not like the way I express myself. I moderate comments because I have had stalkers that posted filth in response to my religion. I'm not afraid to post conflicting opinion comments but I filter threats and inappropriate language comments. 
This comes in response to the Trump Era. May it be shorter than 4 years. =)

Conservative intellectual?? Sometimes I think that's an oxymoron.
