Freepers in mom's basement watching Stewart vs Cramer.

Many of them admit Stewart wiped the floor with Cramer.


Stewart hammers Cramer on 'The Daily Show'

NEW YORK – Jon Stewart hammered Jim Cramer and his network, CNBC, in their anticipated face-off on "The Daily Show," repeatedly chastising the "Mad Money" host for putting entertainment above journalism.

"I understand that you want to make finance entertaining, but it's not a ... game," Stewart told Cramer, adding in an expletive during the show's Thursday taping. The episode was scheduled to air at 11 p.m. EDT on Comedy Central.

It was perhaps the hardest lashing Stewart has given to a TV commentator since 2004 when he called Tucker Carlson and his then co-host Paul Begala "partisan hacks" on CNN's "Crossfire," the since canceled political commentary program.


Cramer was sad. He didn't defend himself. He probably killed his career long-term.

This is all just a setup for an undercard match at Wrestlemania 25.

Stewart is a lib, but he’s no dummy. He wiped Cramer all over the floor. That was a severe verbal beat-down by Stewart.

Naw, he was much harder on Christ Matthews about a year ago. It was awesome.

Let me get this straight: Jon Stewart, a man who makes his living making the news entertaining is criticizing someone else for doing the same? Are Liberals born without a sense of irony and/or shame or do they have it surgically removed?

Gee, Wally, I wonder why Stewart doesn't think the same thing about The War on Terror.

Gosh, Beav, it's because he's a f***ing left-wing wacko, why do you think.

What I find in interesting is how Stewart had probably never, EVER even mentioned Cramer’s name on air before now. Stewart probably didn’t even know who the hell Cramer was.

THEN... Cramer criticizes Hussein, and Stewart is all over him. I wonder if Stewart is on the White House payroll, or is he just freelancing for his own ideological reasons.

Stewart is in the same league as Olberwoman. The only difference between them is Stewart is short.

Funny, Stewart never bothered to do that when Cramer was trashing Bush last year.

Last fall, 54% of Jon Stewart's viewers said that the Republicans controlled Congress. They could have done better if they had flipped coins.

Which proves that it is possible to be dumber than stupid.

Is there anyone more annoying and obnoxious than John Stewart? The guy makes my skin crawl. When I am flipping through the channels and happen to land on his show, I cannot watch for more than 30 seconds. The guy just totally repulses me. Regardless of his political views, the guy just comes off as obnoxious jackass.......

Cramer also told people to sell all their stocks and put money into bonds and cash last fall. No one did it because we all are greedy. But I give the devil his due, even if he was only half serious, it felt like a really dumb thing to do then, losing maybe 10% of of value, but it seems genius now.

Jon Stewart. Pfft.

Jim Cramer's mistake was not making entertainment out of investing, it was something far, far, worse.

He criticized Obama.

The Soviet Union had gulags for the dissidents. The Democrats just seek to destroy their dissidents.

Yeah, what’s this all about? You’d think the Joint Chiefs of Staff were having a throw-down.

Don’t even know who this Cramer is, but why is Jon so bent over this? Residual rage over Madoff?

This is going to become more and more common.

You will also see increased charges of racism when one disagrees with BHO.

And eventually the fruits of his policies are going to hit the sleeping public and then you will see the real BHO come out. The Wright, Ayres mentored Obama

It could be a Madoff thing, but it is more likely ratings or a ‘rat distraction from 0’s performance/agenda, IMO.

Bait and switch.

Stewart is just part of the Hermann Goebbels Propaganda Choir composed of Obama colored brown shirts. Chrissie Matthews is another, along with Keith Elderman, CBS, etc.

nothing personal to Jewish freepers but Stewart epitomizes a very witty comedic Jewish guy who has run his mouth all his life but has never had to cash the check

a sure sign of an upper middle class upbringing....demean folks with impunity
Stewart (unlike Cramer maybe) would crumble at the first blow

"Is there anyone more annoying and obnoxious than John Stewart?"

No.

Steven Colbert has is deadpan shtick. Bill Maher is actually intelligent at times, with flashes of libertarian brilliance. Dennis Miller has cynicism as humor nailed, probably because he is smiling the whole time.

But Stewart has nothing but rudeness. He is a modern day insult comic with the a fake news show. But it is worse than that. Stewart has a meanness to him often manifested by projection, which probably comes from severe insecurity and an intense self-loathing. He is Jewish and short. I guess he just couldn't deal with it. But insult comics Don Rickels and Jackie Mason are both Jewish and short, and they are able to be funny.

Cramer’s mistake was criticizing Obama. He thought he could get away with it because he is a big Democrat.

The Dems and their willing accomplices, the MSM, are now destroying him. This is a big SITYS for Rush

Over at the DUmp 90% of their threads are about this??

Don’t get it.... which means I should probably pay attention, there is likely a (barf) Emanual directive going on.

Stewart and Colbert do not warrant any self-respecting conservative watching, in my personal opinion.

Rickles is the best Jewish comic in history.

Winters and Newhart are not Jewish I don’t think....could wrong....along with Rickles they are my trifecta

it’s no cosmic accident Jews make such great comics....born with greased synpases I reckon

much higher rpm than my southern communicative skills

1. I just started reading

your WONDERFUL post. Thank you so much for it. I never go to that site because I'm afraid something diseased and wet will get on my hard drive.

But, I only got as far as the one that referred to Cramer's show as "Mad Money" before my laughter became uncontrollable.

This is going to be a real feast.

Thanks again.

:toast:

On Edit: OK, I read their comments. As always, their ignorance, racism, bigotry, and flat-out stupidity just floor me. It pisses me off that one of their votes counts the same as mine. Sometimes this "democracy" business just annoys me....................

2. I will take a shower after watching some of Craig Ferguson.

:toast:

[Patsy Stone]

3. "the Hermann Goebbels Propaganda Choir"

Nice one. :eyes:

These idiots don't get that it's screwing around with people's money and talking BS on national TV without any research at all that's the problem, not Stewart and whether he's has a D or an R after his name.

Oh, well... At least one of them is a Don Rickles fan.

[AlCzervik]

8. "greased synpases", Rimjob give them the spell check, for the love of god.

:hi:

[Triana]

4. whatta load of snorting and crotch-scratching

HA! Guess their Mommies forgot to flea-bomb the basement.

:rofl:

[Pirate Smile]

5. Dammit! I did not get the "Emanual directive". How could I not be on that e-mail list. Why didn't

he Tweet me? I feel so left out. :(

[Oak2004]

12. I was thinking the same thing

I'm thinking he knows I think he sucks. But how could he know that? Was it my comments to DCCC phone solicitors that I preferred to "Act Blue" rather than donate to fake Democrats recruited by him to run for Congress? Or maybe he's just like Santa Claus-- he knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake, he knows when you've been ba---

Oh no!-- maybe I'm going to have DU secret decoder ring repossessed! Oh woe is me!

Please, please forgive me, Mr. Chief of Staff! I promise to follow all your directives in the future. Don't take away my DU decoder ring!

9. They call Stewart an entertainer.......So what is ass whipe Rush then?

Let me get this straight: Jon Stewart, a man who makes his living making the news entertaining is criticizing someone else for doing the same? Are Liberals born without a sense of irony and/or shame or do they have it surgically removed?

[Johonny]

10. It's funny becausenone of them apparently understood Jon's argument.

As for the whole Obama criticism fetish... ah the topic never, ever was mentioned in the whole show. I mean the whole show was about neither Obama, Bush, Liberals or conservatives. It was about the news and it's role in society.

[Iggo]

11. So Jon Stewart's a jew, eh?

Do these freeps even realize what nazis they are?

14. And a short one at that.

15. "The Dems and their willing accomplices, the MSM..."

Weird: Repubs think the MSM is some liberal media conspiracy; the Dems think MSM is shilling Repub propoganda.

Geeze, what does it take for the MSM to get some love? :silly:
