CNBC smiles at job loss numbers,,,
While getting ready to announce the new job loss numbers, they had an 8 panel view of 8 assholes on the screen, including the overexposed geek sick santelli. They are enjoying people loosing their jobs, because they think it makes their position against the president stronger. These fucks need to be sued for bad advise, and hauled into the slammer to pay for their sins. It is worse than communism what they are doing. They will not stop. No matter how bad things get, they will not stop. I can turn the channel, but how many vulnerable naive people don't, and will be influenced by this communist agenda. Therein lies the problem.

Pres Obama won't help wall street and the overinflated fat cat bankers, so he is failing. He wants to fix health care, which effect there overinflated charges to the american people, so he is failing, he wants to charge the rich 300 dollars per 10,000 over 250k, so he is killing the economy. They will not stop until they are gone. It is like a drug addict or alcoholic who cannot get away from the vises they are accustomed to. GE needs to be held to account for their actions. They are a dangerous powerful regime that is trying to control the message, their message. I am all for free speech, but when it is so damaging to the greater good of the country, and based on lies and deceit, there has to be a line and accountability.

3. They were laughing it up when the market was in freefall
in January. All the happy faces as if they lived in another world. Scary stuff.

5. market hits lowest in 15 years--they clap when the bell rings at the end
the ticker on bloomberg goes by with "the obama recession...."
yea there is an obvious push to blame a scapegoat,but people know the real reasons
but with a constant barrage of lies for a few months,years,and a "softened" up finacially stressed public....right out of the nazi playbook

6. It's not like America watches CNBC more than Survivor
CNBC has a small and limited audience. It's mostly confined to airport waiting areas and some other obscure areas.

7. Cable news has lost it.
They are giggling and smiling while they pretend to be concerned about the rest of us. It's incredible.

8. Just this morning, resident options skullet Najarian was calling for "10% tax cuts across the board"
You know, because tax cuts worked SOOOooooo well when we tried it before.

He also said that the proposed 0.25% transaction tax would "effectively kill trading". COME on. From the small trader to rich bastards like him, they wouldn't even MISS the money and you'd have billions in government revue in a short amount of time.

It's no doubt that a station that features dicks like Jack Welch and Steve Forbes regularly, along with every GOP shill congressperson/sentaturd yapping their two cents, should not be taken as anything but a Pravda-esque arm of the deposed Boy King's supporters. Only rich people did well in the Bewsh Administration, and they're pissed that the margin calls are coming in.

9. Why do corporate republicon media propagandists HATE working Americans?
I guess these republicon tools figure they are 'elite' -- like Rush DraftDodger Limbaugh -- and can glibly smirk-it-up over the problems of Americans who actually work for a living...

10. what I have seen so far on CNBC - they are happy that the job numbers are so close to anticipated
I don't think for a second they are happy that people are losing their jobs. Futures are up.

Lets be reasonable.

11. Reasonable, lets see.
I can't afford to pay an extra 300 bucks on anything over 250k. So I will have to cut my donations to charity, or, I'm not going to handle as many patients because I will have to work more hours, which means I Will have to pay more taxes. Pour babies. Reasonable. You gotta be kiddin me.......

12. your observations and conclusions are so far removed from reality
Edited on Fri Mar-06-09 11:11 AM by DrDan
you just don't like these guys - so you assume they want the economy to fail . . .for folks to lose jobs.

Just not reasonable.

I'm done.
