Santelli for President...Hot Damn..Areal man.
He is hardly going to get fired when he triples or quadruples CNBC audience. And he never says anything critical of GE.
4 times nuttin’ is still nuttin!!
/Sarc
I’ve seen people get fired for MUCH LESS.. even when Keeping them would have been in the Company’s Better Interest. I’m member of some of the same Unions Santelli would belong to, and .. Some of the STORIES!!
Many of us would be interested to hear the stories, even without company or individual names!
If nothing else, he has boosted CNBC’s ratings.
Sounds good to me, VRWC For Truth!
Ah, we gotta quit being afraid to speak our minds. That’s just want the liberals want.
I’m glad Rick is telling it like it is.
....that’s just what the liberals want.
(correction to above post, sorry)
I loved his speech, and I support his sentiment, and his tea party. I am a little put off by this:
“Maybe a tax break, maybe everybody who has a house gets something. “
I have read that in a few places today, and I don’t like it. What about the people who have been saving for a house, and yet because this fraud kept driving prices up then they could never buy one unless they took out a loan that would have been irresponsible. Now government help to home owners has the effect of keep house prices up. And even if it did not then why would it be fair for someone with a house to get money from the government and the other guy who pays his taxes too- does not get anything. That is just wrong.
The only fair answer is for the government to stop spending money. This is America. Let things fall where they may. And if they don’t stop the spending then everything is going to come crashing down.
Why the HELL should this come from a guy on TV?/ Where’s our LEADERS???? HELLO, GOP!!!!!!
This comment was left on the CNBC website:
“To get back to the “Tea Party”, my calendar says April !9 is the anniversary of the beginning of the American Revolution. We as a people need to get the attention of those in Washington and a grand nation-wide tea party ought to get their attention. I propose that the word should be spread for an organized tea party on April 19th. Peaceful protests need to be encouraged and a march on Washington set up. Call all the radio stations, tv stations, fax, email, write letters to the media, congress to protest the march toward socialism. My personal belief is we should call for an impeachment of Obama, Biden, Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Dodd, Schumer, and all the other Democrats who voted for the garbage bill they want to cram down our throats. Get Limbaugh, Hannity, and all the Conservative Pundits on board to encourage a cleanup of Washington. And get rid of the Lobbyists as well, they’re lining their pockets with our money while America is getting the shaft.”
Well? What do you think? If that sounds good to you, copy & paste, post it everywhere you go.
April 19th - far enough off to plan for, near enough to maintain the rage against the machine. The symbolic significance is the best part.
Slightly off topic question..but does anyone know if mortgage adjustments ( partial forgiveness) restructuring..whatever you want to call it..under Zero’s proposals..will be taxable income to the recipient?
I’m wondering if he’s going to have a JOB come tomorrow Morning.
Might be an opening for IL senator...replace Burris with Santelli.

I would like to mention that a LIBERAL friend of mine called me over to another part of the office to watch the video. I had not mentioned the video to her, though I had seen the video several hours earlier, scooped so early by FR.
She totally agreed with Santelli. She is a very sincere liberal who gets uncomfortable with the hard questions. She doesn’t want people to suffer... But she’s honest about it. I generally remind her that charity must be voluntary to be worthwhile for anybody.
