CNBC has become the 21st Century street corner not unlike the street corners of the 1930's. But instead of common folk hitting up other common folk for a hand out with the phrase "Brother, can you spare a dime", we got billionaires and multi-millionaires hitting up Uncle Sam for Gubmint...

I think it may be too little too late. Stocks like AIG, GM, and C have just about run out of ticks.

I do not think Santelli thought this idea up on his on. Meredith Whitney former Oppenheimer analyst has been pushing this idea as a productive way of getting capital into the system. Money given to the big zombie banks is much like throwing good money after bad. Whitney's point is...

Yep, the one pretender on this forum that was profitable, albeit due to a little matter of criminal fraud.

Hey, it takes a lot of balls to go begging to the Chinese. And no one can say that Hillary does not have balls. The only person that came to Washington with more balls than Hillary after Obama's victory was Barry's lovely and charming wife Michelle.

As a Yankee fan I will reserve my judgment of the NYC economy until I see how the two MLB teams do in their new ball parks. Personally, it is my view that the Yankees are the blue chip franchise of all sports franchises. And both bad management and the fact that Steinbrenner sired...

That pretty much tell me all that I need to know. Don't try to pull rank here as I take an "economics major" to mean that you once were an officer in the now disbanded army of what was formerly known as Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

I appreciate how difficult it is, but I question whether the folk who implemented Mark to Market appreciated "unintended consequences". I might cut Geithner some slack, but I fear he is a deer in the headlights. At this point, it is not whether he can formulate a perfect plan. They need...

The problem is not what to do with BAC or C. That is a sexy news story which is of more interest to the media than it is to anyone else. It is front page financial news because the clueless crew in the media have been left to frame the story on a account of what amounts to a vaccuum of...

Dead banks walking. Dumb pols talking.

Rule Number 2 was established back in September. When the Gubmint changes the rules on shorting in midstream, you lose. There will be no mulligans, make-goods, or bailouts.

The literate syntax of what appears to be an attempt at a rhetorical question escapes me. Good syntax here, you had better stick to hate speech. Rhetorical questions are way beyond your fifth grade literacy.

She can field dress a moose. He can field dress a Leisman.

If Kudlow went to a diner, Walmart, or McDonald's, he would be wearing the same business suits with probably his favorite pink themed ties and handkerchiefs.

Rick Santelli is a middle class guy from middle America. The Mainstream Media rarely allows daily broadcasts from anywhere outside it media centers on the coasts. As far as rants go, the only person that I know of the MSM allows to rant day in and day out is the bitchy old queen, Keith...

I am thinking a reality TV show here. Pickens, Kirkorian, Zell, Redstone, and Trump could do a show, how to live on millions when you are used to living on billions. Maybe throw in Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne. How to live like millionaire rock stars after you lived like billionaire...

CNBC may be finding out who may be their audience. They have poll about Rick's Tea party on CNBC.com. They already have 78k responses. These internet polls may be unscientific but that is more responses than you see on most web sites such as ESPN or newspaper sites.

CNBC is DESPERATE. They were begging people to go to cnbc.com to see the video of Rick this morning. How desperate is CNBC and media in general? Watch closely at the advertisements. They have been running a lot of direct marketing ads lately. Those Video Professor ads are theirs not...

I don't trade on his information. But I am inspired by his attitude. Obviously, the MSM lives to kiss elitist political ass. If Santelli got the MSM memo on how he is expected to comport himself, he ignored it. He is a populist in a elitist dominated MSM world and that is REFRESHING.

Santelli promises Tea Party. Santelli laments the passing of intestinal fortitude. Intestinal fortitude is an impossibilty when our leaders and their minions in the MSM talk out of their ass instead of their mouth.
