Participant[quote=SanDiegoDave]Someone earlier got it right: The Stewart/Cramer dustup is 100% about Obama and not in the least bit about the economy.[/quote]
Wow… You’d think after getting their asses kicked last November, the GOP would have taken their lumps, come clean and corrected course by now? Not so much. These people are kooky.
I saw the whole thing from Santelli to Stewart’s rant about CNBC to the pushback from Cramer and friends to the utter ‘reaming’ Cramer got on TDS the other night.
Whatever you think of Stewart, the issue was pretty squarely focused on the financial crisis and the role of cable financial networks, the hypocrisy of Santelli-types wailing about loser mortgages when the financial industry is receiving about $2T in government support to stay solvent, and the ‘celebrity culture’ of the whole cable news business…
Stay on topic, you threadjacking losers!

ParticipantDitto here.
Wells Fargo, in our case. They started adding $20-30 fees, just arbitrary. A couple of months in a row, despite assurances from branch, crediting the charges back, etc.
We told the manager if it happened again we would close our accounts with them. It did, so we closed the accounts and severed the relationship.
If we started charging our clients ‘arbitrary’ fees, (1) they wouldn’t pay them, and (2) they’d cut us loose on the spot. Pretty unbelievable.

ParticipantWhat a stupid post.
This financial crisis is causing big-time problems, enormous pressure on the real-world economy, people who produce things for a living. The 24-hour financial news clowns pumped the RE-bubble and financial-fraud the whole way, not a shred of journalism involved. That’s Stewart’s point. Not that Cramer is to blame, but that CNBC and their ilk amplified the outcome through their bullshit financial ‘entertainment’ news.
‘Liberal conspiracy’? What a grasping, fruitwad, loose-screw thing to say. These ranting right-wing types have no connection to reality anymore. This mess is bigger than political party but the Republicans were at the epicenter, and every bit a part of the problem. Not sure how this is some big-bad lefty liberal thing. Just stupid comments.
