Jim Cramer wants POTUS to "Just Kind of Go Away"....
Jim Cramer was kicking it with Joe Scarborough, on the issue of healthcare reform. At the ready is a "stunning" poll indicating that Americans were more concerned with paying down deficits than they are about stimulating the economy. Chances are, those Americans are under the impression that the economy is already stimulated, and that attention rightly should be paid now to combating deficits down the line. Naturally, Scarborough turns this into an issue of health care reform: "Don't you think," Scarborough asks Cramer, "that this puts the Obama administration behind the eight ball on health care?" Hey, maybe a poll on support for health care reform would be a better way of placing the issue in context? Probably!

But Cramer insists, without evidence, that "when Americans hear health care reform, it just means tax increases." No chance that Americans think it might just mean, "Oh! You mean I might be able to afford asthma inhalers for my family, and what not?" Not at all! In fact, according to Cramer: "Until we get the economy moving again, I think everybody wishes that Obama would just kind of go away for a little bit."

Seems like only yesterday that the media was telling us that everyone wanted Obama to work on the economy and nothing else, forever. But now it's time to "go away." Surely, this is indeed what "everybody" wants!

just as Fox News is.

7. Is this the same Cramer Stewart crucified in his show...
...for his complicity in the financial collapse.

I wish he would resurrect ritual suicide.

8. Tax increases?
Yes, maybe. But you can be sure that any tax increases will far less than the thousands of dollars that the average American already spends on health care per year.

9. And if he isn't out there. Its, "where is Obama on this" "why won't he answer questions"?
These people are so predictable.

Having said that, the reason Obama has to be out is because Democrats are so pathetic at selling things. He's the only one who can do it

11. For someone who confessed to crimes
on The Daily Show, Cramer should keep a low profile.

13. I'm sure Cramer does want Obama to go away, but no one else does.
Most people want Cramer and the fools at CNBC to go away. And take Joke Scarborough and his airbot sidekick with you, please

14. We can thank Bill Maher for this. Cramer is just picking up on his comments
because he sees an opening. If Maher doesn't want to see Obama on TV anymore, change the fucking channel or stop watching TV moron. You don't speak for everyone, Bill.

15. Is The Guy Who Is Mostly WRONG
probably 70% of the time on the economy and his advice on how to get rich quick caused millions to lose money in the stock market?

Friends of Jim Cramer who all work on Wall ST. are all scratching their heads saying " is this Obama fellow sayin we don't get to make $10 million dollars a year if tax payers gave us bailout money?" We wish he'd just go away!
