Cramer: My Response To The White House
The Street.com ^ | 3/5/2009 | Jim Cramer

Posted on 03/05/2009 5:27:12 AM PST by spacejunkie01

*snip*

Now some, including Rush Limbaugh, would say I am on another enemies list: that of the White House. Limbaugh says there are only a handful of us on it, and if I am on it for defending all of the shareholders out there, then I am in good company. Limbaugh -- whom I do not know personally, but having been in radio myself, know professionally as a genius of the medium -- says, "They're going to shut Cramer up pretty soon, too, but he'll go down with a fight."

Cramer is jealous of Santelli’s time in the spotlight over at CNBC. It worked, he’s back on top.

""...I thought Obama to be a middle-of-the-road Democrat,...

Yet another candidate for Elementary Thinking Class.

Cramer is a bit kooky. He says this deep into the article:

To be totally out of the closet, I actually embrace every part of Obama's agenda, right down to the increase on personal taxes and the mortgage deduction. I am a fierce environmentalist who has donated multiple acres to the state of New Jersey to keep forever wild. I believe in cap and trade. I favor playing hardball with drug companies that hold up the U.S. government with me-too products.

But, Cramer says, we need to wait until better economic times to do all this nonsense. Nutjob.

"She's still a Dem, but the cracks are showing in Obama's armor. I tell ya, if the Republicans can get their act together over the next four years, we may be well situated."

I agree. When we let liberals be liberals (Carter, Obama) and not force them into conservative policies against their will (Clinton), our side usually wins. Not because our side is made up of geniuses, but because a liberal allowed to enact his true beliefs unfettered by opposition will fail every time. The only question is how much lasting damage will they do to the country while practicing liberalism.

You were one of Zero’s media cheerleaders and voted for the fraud, and now you’re having second thoughts?

Give us a break, Cramer.

Obama makes nice-nice with Hamas, Palestinians, Syria and Iran.

He's not just making nice-nice. He is paying for their 2009 Q1 operations. Or more accurately, he is making your grand-children pay for their 2009 Q1 opertions.

We should be offering words of encouragement, not chastising him.

Anything we can do to stir the poo of the lefties is a good thing.

Cramer is one of millions of rich people who are Democrats because of “liberal guilt.”

Cramer supported the troops is a capitalist. Unfortunately, he thinks the government can meddle in the economy, just a little.

Government never does anything “just a little.”

Perhaps some of these idiots who put Obama in the White House with MONEY are coming around.

I heard Cramer was chopping up stuffed animals tonight on his show... LOL (I didn't see it, as I always watch "Special Report with Bret Baier" on FNC at 6pm ET). Anyone know if that is on YouTube yet?

"Mad Money" with Jim Cramer repeats on CNBC tonight at 11pm ET if you missed it.

Here's CNBC's Jim Cramer as of March 3, 2009:

YouTube video: Cramer: Obama is causing the greatest destruction of wealth I have ever seen by a president

YouTube video: Cramer on the Obama Administration's failure to pay attention to the stock market

Ha!

Cramer may be a former Trotskyite, but I like him!
Good for him for not letting Obama get away with it.

Obama’s enemies list is getting longer and longer.

Thanks for telling us when Mad Money will be on, nutmeg.
I’ll have to watch it tonight.

Thank you for the post and ping!

I'm hearing more and more people who were shocked that Obama is so radical---people who voted for him.

Rush is right, this will take a while, and it's not going to happen overnight. People don't like to admit they are wrong. But within six months, his approval ratings will equal Bush's.

I saw it!

The stuffed animals (felines) were the Fat Cats, and he was demonstrating what Obama is doing to them!

It’s official...Cramer is nuts!
But, in a very GOOD way. ;o)

As bad as things are right now, the economy was in worse shape in the mid 70s and early 80s. Unemployment was at 10% in 1982. When we reach 10% unemployment, then the Messiah’s favorabilities will decline. A lot of the young Messiah worshippers don’t think about retirement funds. However when they can’t find jobs, then they will think twice about worshipping him.

Yes, unemployment (and inflation) were both much worse in the late 1970s. But the debt as a share of GNP was nowhere close; SS and Medicare, while underfunded in the long run, were not yet bankrupt; and while companies such as GM and Chrysler were struggling, they were still close to the top. Much has changed, though.

The banking system cannot survive as is: we will either have to deregulate or nationalize; GM, Ford, and Chrysler must be allowed to collapse and be broken up into smaller, leaner competitors; the mortgage industry is still going to get a massive round of defaults after people who CAN pay say "No" based on the fact that they expect bailouts; and so on.

The expectations were different, too. In 1970, it was still believed that people should work for their income; that government only acted as a last resort for national security (Chrysler, Lockheed); and that the goal was a balanced budget. None of those are true today.
