It's already started: buyers remorse blues hits MSNBC's top financial commentator, big Democrat donor and Obama supporter, Jim Cramer.
Here is a quote:
"So I will fight the fight against that agenda. I will stand up for what I believe and for what I have always believed: Every person has a right to be rich in this country and I want to help them get there. And when they get there, if times are good, we can have them give back or pay higher taxes. Until they get there, I don't want them shackled or scared or paralyzed. That's what I see now.
If that makes me an enemy of the White House, then call me a general of an army that Obama may not even know exists -- tens of millions of people who live in fear of having no money saved when they need it and who get poorer by the day".

That picture of The One at the upper right reminds me more of Mussolini than of Lenin.
It would be a real good time for the Republicans to get their act together.
Keep dreaming my friend , keep dreaming. Half of the GOP is as bad as Obama and they were bought off pretty easily in Zero’s first month in office.
Sadly, there used to be some pro-business ‘Rats.
Most of them seem to have caught redistribution fever lately, though.
In the ‘90s, Sen. Ron Wyden was very liberal on most issues, but was pretty good wrt business.
During Hillary’s health care debacle, he called my husband and talked to him for over an hour.
He wanted to know how it would effect his business.
IIRC, he ended up being against it.
He’s gone ‘round the bend lately, though.
The SS is on their way over to Cramers’ as we speak.
That might not be as funny as you think. Mark my words the enemy list will get longer and more serious. Just watch what happens folks.
ANYONE yet up for a Million Man March on DC ????????
When ? When it’s too late?.I got it , lets just talk about it on here some more , that will show em !
in private life, agree totally.
The fact that a public media person is actively turning on obama, and is articulate enough (and knowledgable enough about the financial system) to speak clearly about it, is of interest. The fact he supported the guy before only adds to his ‘credibility’ with the average uninformed viewer.
Seriously, what do you have against a former obama supporter comparing him to Lenin on national tv?
the issue with cnbc is that a lot of their commentators either worked in the market or have reported so long (there are people there still from FNN) they are probably far more familiar with the financial system than anyone in the white house, and many of the care about this system possibly more than any political party, when it is threatened. They see obama actively working against it, and can’t ignore it any longer.
cramer is a disaster on stocks, in terms of viewer results.
Cramer should have read this site before the election. We all knew that Barack Hoover was not up to the job.
agree he is an attention-person, but he was comparing obama to lenin last month, well before the santinelli thing, iirc.
Yeah, Obama’s starting to look Nixonian.
He's got his own burning tire.
[Nice spotlight on The Menace from Kenya.
He’s got his own burning tire.]
Thanks Phil. I like how it turned out.
His burning tire is from his own ‘symbol’, lol, ironic how we devise things.
He's got a lot of both in him, plus a good deal of Hugo Chavez. Maybe we should call him "Loser-lini".
The only things I despise more than people such as obama who wish to destroy the Nation are those who inflicted the bastard on me. He is one of them.
Yep, when all of Osama’s base were yelling for “pie”, Cramer had to know that pastry was coming from somewhere.
Totally naive...
Wow...can't wait to get rich so I can pay higher taxes...
“The only things I despise more than people such as obama who wish to destroy the Nation are those who inflicted the bastard on me. He is one of them.”
Fair enough. The opinions he voices against obama are going to have vastly more impact than both of us together, though. Now that we are here stuck with the marxist-leninist today, having a tv head calling him Lenin is better than not.
i think pro-business is code for willing to be bought by business. They cannot just come out and say ‘this guy takes cash, this one here takes jobs/businesses for family’, etc.
Very true. It's tough to have a conversation with most people about Obama and the economic situation. I know people who lead conservative lifestyles, and they voted for Obama. They read the local paper, which is pro-Obama, and they watch NBC nightly news.
