http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/03/13/cramer.stewart.reaction/index.html This was as pathetic a performance on national TV as I have seen ever; maybe Bill Clinton’s address to the DNC in 1988 comes close.  What happened, Cramer, lost your backbone?  Easy to bloviate when you have no one to argue against.  I don’t know how Cramer will have the audacity to show his [...]

As generally happens with a ‘mandate’, the Barack Obama Presidency has made the usual mistake…they have translated their mandate to mean ‘we can do whatever we deem necessary, no matter how extreme”.  What did Mr. Obama do?  He took his mandate to be a moderate voice of change, and has turned that in to the [...]

Numerous ultra left liberals, among other idiots, have in recent months written about the death of Capitalism, and how ‘finally’ the capitalistic structure that has ‘stolen’ so much money for the few selfish wealthy countries from the many impoverished nations is finally over.

I can’t even begin to explain the stupidity of such thinking.

http://money.cnn.com/2009/02/10/markets/markets_newyork/index.htm?postversion=2009021014 Tim Geithner’s presentation of TARP II to Congress was greeted with a dull, loud thud on Wall Street.  The markets, who were far from reassured by President Obama’s remarks last night nor the Treasury Secretary’s this morning, fell382 points, falling to its lowest point since November 20, 2008, and retesting its lows. “… I [...]
