10. You took the words right out of my mouth...
Tweety is looking really good tonight. The whole show is disgusting. It was almost like "Morning Joke, the Evening Version". I wanted to throw a brick through my TV when Pat Robertson was on spewing his racist accusations. He's more repulsive than Barnicle.

8. He had Kramer on and closed with a question:
Barnacle: Unions?

Kramer: Bust 'em

Barnacle: I'm with you there


I am really starting to lose it.

4. I had to walk away
Him and Cramer were both lying there asses off. This was a big game on Wall St. to give loans to people, inflate the housing market, and then take bets on when it would all pop. They've been raking in the dough, and now they want to talk about personal responsibility and long term philosophy? This is utterly the most repungnant shit I've ever had to listen to since the run up to the Iraq War.

I've decided that anytime someone on TV uses the word American alot like Santelli did...they are hiding something.

Cramer was completely wrong when he brought up being better off than Europe. if that comment seemed misplaced it was because he knows that the EU agreed to settle their toxic assets on their own.
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/14f6ed04-fe8e-11dd-b19a-000077b07658.html

That sounds like a minor point but it is HUGE compared to what Wall St is incapable of doing. The EU, comprised of so many different countries, nationalities, and political dispositions, was able to do what Wall St couldnt. that was a signal to cramer and his buddies that they are full of shit, and that's why cramer made that snide comment about being better off than Europe.

I hope people learn to focus right now. It is not about cartoons, and some dumb comment buried in the press. Wall St. is pulling the wool over peoples eyes, and wrapping themselves in a flag.

6. You got that right, they are just pissed because Obama's plan is to help those
who got caught up in this bs game of Wall Street raking in the dollars off of the backs of those who got in the mess. Hey, those like Santelli bitching about bailing out homeowners, where was his outrage and frigging fit for the cameras when Bush and Paulsen bailed out the banks? Besides that his yelling about buying out his neighbors mortgage will help keep the value of on his own home, the ignorant ass.

I am tired of these asses and it looks like they are trying to really rev it up. I just hope the hell Obama sees them for what they are and gets in his game and kicks their asses by getting all of the support he can muster and do as he sees what needs to be done.

These people are nothing more than criminals.

12. I lol'd like a schoolgirl when Kramer said we're better off than Europe
Edited on Thu Feb-19-09 07:50 PM by burythehatchet
European countries have been operating social democracies for decades and therefore their economies have been far less expansive and more controlled. They have built their social services so that the least among them still can live with some decency. American pigs like Kramer despise the weakest among us and hate to see them get a hand up. As for Santelli, before today I had never heard of him. Today I have very strong opinions about him.

13. Santelli is just saying what many Americans (and others) believe
Unfortunately. It's the old "I've got mine, you must be be stupid, lazy, or evil if you don't have yours".

This attitude isn't restricted to finances. I hear it about health as well - "If you're unhealthy, it must be because you don't live a healthy lifestyle."

I guess it's just an unfortunate part of human behavior right now.

I rarely wish people harm, but I think it would be very good for Rick if he were to lose his job, then his house. I wonder if he would then consider himself a deadbeat?

14. Barnicle just said Holder is way out there and was smoking a bong with
Michael Phelps and delusional. A white man saying everything been fixed since the 60s.


Fuck Barnicle.
