"Has Jim Cramer just touched off another round of Tea Parties?"

So asked TVNewser's Chris Ariens Thursday in response to another anti-Obama demonstration by the outspoken CNBCer who appeared on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" hours earlier:

But until we get the economy moving again, I think everybody wishes that Obama would just kind of go away for a little bit.

Honestly, you've got to see it to believe it (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript):

JOE SCARBOROUGH, HOST: Hey, Jim Cramer, let me ask you a quick question about a stunning poll - I know you guys have been talking about it for the past hour. But a stunning poll the New York Times has this morning suggesting that Americans are more concerned about deficits than stimulus. Don't you think this puts the Obama administration behind the eight ball on health care? You talk about keeping it under a trillion dollars - I think it has to be lower unless they pay for it.

JIM CRAMER: Well, I think that Americans - These are all sub-rows of issues. This is all about taxes, and there's a belief that until the economy recovers, we simply can't afford tax increases, a la what happened in 1937 in this country. And when they hear health care reform, it just means tax increases, and there's got to be someone who pays for it. And the under a trillion dollars, it is over many years as Ron Brownstein said, it just makes it at least somewhat palatable.

But until we get the economy moving again, I think everybody wishes that Obama would just kind of go away for a little bit.

Think he'll soon be Olbermann's "Worst Person in the World?"

Yes -- that was a rhetorical question.

Seriously though...this is rich, it tickles me.

...But I betcha Olbie ignores him.

I have no doubt that

I have no doubt that Olbermann will use Cramer as a laxitive for his diarrea mouth.

gently

Obama's "personal numbers" are good, but I wish his policies would go away.

v24... I wished he would

I wished he would just go away.

Heck...Stand Up Joe.! Let's hear it for Joe!

 I think everybody wishes

 I think everybody wishes that Obama would just kind of go away for a little bit.

   This is precisely the sentiment the country is moving to.  Every day it's another initiative from obama with another huge price tag yet he's done nothing to help the economy.  We are not a nation of children.  We do not need a constant barrage of lecturing from someone who feels that he is the only person who knows what to do.  If he would just go and stay in the Whitehouse a few days and leave us the hell alone we could all relax a little bit.  Voters are going to get so sick of this omnipresent President that they will vote against him just to shut him up.

It would seem

would seem that he's having just a tad bit more trouble getting this particular community (USA) "organized".

Hell, I don't even care if

Hell, I don't even care if he goes away mad.... LOL

I didn't think it was physically possible, but this both sucks and blows.  -Bart Simpson

 

  The media has turned this

  The media has turned this country into a real life version of the movie The Truman Show.  Everything revolves around obama and the rest of us are just supporting cast.   The Presidency of this country has tuned into the ultimate reality show.  Evey day it's another episode of  'Keeping up with the Obama's'.

FO...........................................

FO, pronounced "phough" is now my standard responce to anything Obama. The O is obvious, but the F can mean a lot of things. In my case, this being a site where literate kids under the age of 18 may read once and awhile and my natural inclination of not to use these type of words in print, I will only say that the F word rhymes with truck. I am so fed up with this whining, ace of misguided policies, favoritism to cronies, blame Bush mentality, pedestal seeking a** that  is exactly how I feel whenever he is mentioned. His tenacles touch almost every aspect of my life, so I will fight back with the minimum amount of effort it takes to type two letters.......FO.

More and more obvious

It's becoming more and more obvious that Obama doesn't have a clue about what he is talking about. He jumps from one issue to another without actually doing anything.   He spends like a teenage girl with her first credit card without any understanding of what it takes to pay off that debt.  He had the potential to be one of the great presidents, but it's obvious that his lack of undestanding of the problem will make him one of the very worse presidents ever.  Is there one single thing that he's done right or made better?

Mesmerized

I for 1 am NOT mesmerized by the usurper. His deep, smooth voice reminds me of Darth Vader. His voice is his control over people and he uses gestures of the hypnotist to control people as well. Hitler did the same thing. Notice the subtle head tilt up and to the side while he uses an open hand on the opposite side of the head tilt to draw people into his sphere with the open hand with the fingers cupped. Classic. And effective unless you've been alerted to the trick. Also, the Denver speech was pure 'Triumph of the Will". The propaganda film made by Leni Reifenstall. Same outdoor setting at night in a darkened sports stadium. Candles and torches lit. Adoring children looking up at the Fuhrer. Old people crying as if their savior has finally arrived after a lifetime of waiting.  Even the exact same editing, with the pacing, cutting and sequence of scenes perfectly emulated. Once you've seen it, it's unmistakable and it sure as hell wasn't a coincidence. Frightening in the extreme, especially when you hear  Evan Thomas of Newsweek state: "Obama is above it all, like God."

I agree, and would that

I agree, and would that there is no substance to his speeches.  Most of them are spent telling us that he "inherited" the problems, saying what they are, and how difficult they are to overcome.  Then he procedes to throw money and/or committees at the problems, without giving us any detail as to how this will solve the problem.

 

Mesmerized, indeed

His gestures seem so canned, now.  Pinch the air with left hand, as you read the right tele-screen, chop with right hand as you read left screen, face forward for a split-second with both hands chopping...but the twisting back and forth is now obvious, as that remarkable little bit of humor from MSNBC (is the reporter-ette now at Gitmo?) showed.

"until then"???  The

"until then"???  The economy won't just get better on its own without a reversal of Obomba's policies, and the polices of the Democrats (with help form a few RINOs) which got us into this mess in the first place.

So, reverse the misguided command-economy policies, then they can ALL go away.

Great, Cramer.  Way to

Great, Cramer.  Way to claim back some of your manhood.  Now make sure to show up on Stewart's program somewhat prepared this time.  He's really not that intelligent.  Catch him off guard and he will stumble...then the trained seals in the audience won't know what to do (they can only rely on the applause meter for so long).  Worshippers tend to turn on their false gods once they find out that they're well beneath their devotion.  With any luck, they won't be serving the audience any sugary drink mixes...false prophets often resort to mass suicides once they're in danger of being caught.

It's just amazing how much

It's just amazing how much of a bad-ass he's trying to be after getting his clock cleaned. 

Yeah, but you give Stewart

Yeah, but you give Stewart too much credit.  Sometimes you win, but sometimes the other guy just lost.

"I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."  -George Best

Yeah, Stewart is good at

Yeah, Stewart is good at what he does but Cramer is a train wreck of an interview.  Stewart couldn't hold his own against the Hannitys, Limbaugh, and Coutlers of the world.  I would love to see Dick Morris go on there and give him a spanking like he did to Alan Colmes after the VP debate last year.  And I like Alan Colmes but he got his clock cleaned.

 

When the people fear the government it's called tyranny, when the government fears the people it's called liberty!

One of the most important

One of the most important things I have realized is its all about him. Every speach, every policy...everything he has done or said, is all about him. Its all personal, which he why he rails on Fox every chance he gets...its personal to him. He is not going to go away, quietly, mad or any of the above. It is up to us to inform our sadly self involved and complacent elected officials to halt this maniacal spending spree for programs that it is appearant the majority of Americans do not want and get this train wreck into check until we can vote him out. Our only hope is 2010 and nullify his presidency through the channels left open to us by the founding fathers.........sadly I do not see this happening and I forsee an inordinate amount of financial pain and loss of freedom in our future.

jessieH        Is it just me, or has any body else noticed, that some of the news people shying away from obama worship?

This is what I always

This is what I always think... I cringe whenever I hear that Obama is going to announce a new plan. I would bow to his Oneness if he would just let the free market have its way for about 1-2 months so that this could all go away.

"I believe in American Exceptionalism, just like Brits believe in British Exceptionalism and Greeks believe in Greek Exceptionalism." - PreBO, 4/4/09

I agree Cramer 100%. I wish

I agree Cramer 100%. I wish Obama would just go away so that we can actually solve our ecnomic problem. Bush was right. It will be the private sector that leads us out of this. Obama and the government are just getting in the way.

He is a failure....

That means I don't have to hope for him to fail, but yes for him to go away would be the best thing to happen in America in a decade and not for just a little while but for good. How this happens is not important the end result is what is counts. So long bamster you............... 

Obamination!

Before Barack Obama goes away, I want him to find his birth certificate and prove that he is a citizen of the United States.
