INTERVIEW OF THE YEAR COMING UP ON CNBC. DON'T MISS IT!!!!!
Edited on Mon Mar-09-09 02:20 PM by Beavker
Maria, 'Money Honey', Bartiromo is going to do an cutting edge, mind numbingly creative interview with...

John McCain! Finally. And he's going to state that we need a commission to find out "how did we get here" regarding the financial mess.

Wow. CNBC, that is some good journalistic coverage. :sarcasm:

More Repukes, almost the oldest of them all. CNBC, go away. GE, cut your losses. Shit can this joke.

5. Heh
Phil fucking Gramm, McCain. He's such a bozo...it's like his dumb tweets "Hmm, fish management. How does one manage a fish?" Someone in the Senate will kindly explain it to you, McCain. These things aren't brain surgery.

7. I didn't see this this morning, but thought it was funny and sad

Morning Joe Breaks out into General Electric commercial (Jason Linkins)

With General Electric's stock price hovering somewhere in the vicinity of seven and a half dollars, the possibility of the company becoming a fully-owned subsidiary of the Sheinhardt Wig Company or being devoured by krakens, in accordance with the prophesy, has never been greater. That's probably why General Electric employee Erin Burnett went on General Electric's Meet The Press to tell General Electric employee David Gregory that right now, it would be nice if the media stopped using such alarming terms as "carnage, apocalypse, bleeding, hemorrhaging, crash." That's also probably why MSNBC's improv comedy troupe, Morning Joe, broke out in an impromptu infomercial for General Electric today on the air.

SCARBOROUGH: The thing is, while Jack's children and grandchildren are disappointed in GE's stock level, I'm actually excited for my children and grandchildren. This is how recessions work and this is how the market turns recessions around, into rallies, because I'm going to start investing heavily in General Electric because they've actually created things over the past twenty-five years. It is not some Wall Street organization that just shuffled around money and played shall games. And Mike, we know the future for General Electric, it's our parent company, I know. I'm just saying, that's the type of company I can build an economy on over the next twenty-five years. There are so many other companies that are collapsing because they don't have the fundamentals right.

BARNICLE: You know what the key to what you just said is? GE makes things.

SCARBOROUGH: They make things. America has stopped making things, for the most part. GE makes things.

8. Erin should take her own advice, and advise her fellow chimps on CNBC
They have no problem talking of Armageddon on CNBC regarding the rest of the economy. But on a separate channel, though owned as well by GE, they will say these things. GE should shit can CNBC.

GE makes things. Yes, and this is good. What do these pieces of shit they interview on CNBC all day do? Nothing. They do not make anything, they generally don't even provide a service. They invest money they already have, or money their rich clients already have, and try to make more money out of it. No real work here.

12. Although regretfully owning a few hundred shares of GE, I get my jollies hearing so many
talking-heads on CNBC talking down GE and the rest of the market, acting as though the crimes, excesses, malfeasance, misfeasance, and nonfeasance of the past eight years and the inevitable consequences that have ensued are all Bill's and Barack's fault. :P

10. CNBC is competing with Fox as the biggest joke on TV, they are
giving Fox serious competition in that affair.

11. McCain: "If people would just buy 7 or 8 houses like me and Cindy
we could put people right back to work." (fantasizing)

14. He's speaking now!
Why the hell would anyone listen or even interview him.
Find a new Repuke to interview. Oh, wait, they've already interviewed all 7 of them. Time to recycle.

16. Calling for more regulation, then laughing uncontrollably...

about not knowing what happened, explaining that it was just out of control greed. Many of these politicos are laughing all the way to their offshore bank accounts.
