A large proportion of economic or market commentators are either clueless hacks, in thrall to discredited models, or simply *****s.

Why isn't Cramer in jail? Didn't he admit to felonies on tape, as revealed on The Daily Show?

He stated that when he was a Hedge Fund Manager that they would disseminate information that was FALSE to generate market reactions. He stated that the people at the SEC were (paraphrasing) "too stupid to understand".

Numerous complaints were filed with the SEC, including mine. NOTHING!

The reason why Cramer is not charged and in jail is because he is a main Mouthpiece of ***** Street.

Cramer is like every guru out there-a coin flip. I've seen it many times over the years where if someone's right for a long period of time, most likely they'll be wrong for an extended period. KD, Cramer ect are in the long run no better than a coin flip. KD was hot and Cramer was cold: now they've switched.

KD, it's been a full frontal assault of mis information by the devil channel for a month. I heard this interview with the resident chimp in my car and nearly drove off the road.

Also Haines and Cramer bowing to the alter of Zweig as if the indicators he used actually matter now which is where the dart throwing monkey got his numbers.

This is gonna knee cap everyone again and this time "more" people will be on board, ex bears drinking the Helo Ben kool aide, the snake oil usual hacks and the gullible public.

I just saw a woman on Kudlow say the housing situation is going to get worse and there is no chance for a V bottom and a ding bat in one of the Hollywood
Squares actually asked her if prices will return to their bubble highs soon after she just told her "it's over'.

There is no hiding what their agenda is...they are promoting another bubble and this one is to me is the worst of the last three.

Didn't some enraged security guard try to get to Cramer once? I think Cramer said to buy a bunch of GOOG call options before their earnings. GOOG then tanked big and the security guard lost it and went looking for Cramer.

People who actually understand the market make HORRIBLE reporters. Because they like to talk about facts, numbers and (the horror!) MATH.

You can't have stuff like that in your entertainment, nobody would watch.

The only reason cramer makes a good talking head is that people like his antics. It sure as HELL isn't because they have, in general, made money off him.

It's justifiably immoral to try to deal in a moral fashion with an immoral entity.

Another problem with WalMart - a change in trends. Why didn't Cramer mention this:

From April 2008 to April 2009, Wal-Mart reported 13 straight months of same-store sales gains. The company stopped reported monthly same-store sales in May, moving to a quarterly reporting of its comparable sales.

To that end, last quarter's same-store sales decline marks the first drop in that measure for Wal-Mart in more than a year.

Got rid of my TV when Obama said I had to get a digital converter box. I haven't missed it a minute. I occasionally watch CNBC videos posted here and elsewhere on line for the comedic value. Seems to me it's nothing but a bunch of breathless stock sluts and reporter boys with their chests puffed out as if they're important. It reminds me a lot of junior high, that special time in life when girls realized that they had dominion over boys and boys, well, were busy being boys.

"The fact is they're shopping"

Well, that is a FACT. "They" are ALWAYS shopping. Given that, I think it is much more important as to what "they" are shopping for. And, how much are "they" spending? Finally, how are "they" paying for their purchases?

Dealing with statistics can be quite fun. The RS numbers comes in minus 0.1. But, how much in $$$ was actually spent in July? Is that number even reported?

Anyway, in the case, Cramer did tell the truth. A sweeping generalization statement of the truth, but still not a lie.

Karl: He is always bragging about "business leaders" on his show, then gloriously pumps their stock". More than once, this came back to bite him n the ass, and more than once (I believe) insiders used it as an opportunity to sell, and once even did a secondary (haha).

Now, since you are in some good graces of some people at CNBS, how about getting yourself onto his show? Stand there, look him in his face and call him a FRAUD. Then go onto systematically correct everything that comes out of his mouth.

Car sales aren't up...?!!

Cash-for-clunkers had no effect?

In fact, car sales were up 2.4%, specialty clothing & accessory stores were up 0.6%... and MUCH of everything else was flat.

Sometimes I read your tickers (and then come here to read the daily ass-kissing you get from the crowd of dolts you've assembled here) and honestly, man, the whole thing makes me want to puke. Do you even read the numbers? Do you even examine the reports you bitch about? Your TF members here sure don't -- I know that much. You know it too, I'd bet money on it.

I guess that's the real difference between me and other people....

I hate having my ass kissed.

Especially by people who can't think, don't care to examine anything on their own, and will blindly accept anything written by anybody, as long as he seems to be against the grain.

Bleaggh....
