    Mark Haynes rules. He is the one who started the whole Mayo thing.

    mark haynes is a slobbering ol’ prick. He’s like jaba the hut salivating over Erin Burnett. But he did start the whole MAYO thing.

    If Immelt fires Gasparino – GE stock doubles, and everyone is so ecstatic that they forget all about the financial crises and banks start lending to each other in jubilation.

    Mark Haynes couldn’t hold a candle to Erin Burnett.

    No. 5, you must be Erin Burnett, as she is the only one who would be delusional enough to believe that.

    Haynes has experience and she is an obnoxious disrespectful brat.

    @ 8:
    I am a retail broker in VA. What is an IRA?

    They don’t have enough votes to pass the bailout package. Some of these people want to keep their jobs and not be voted out in a landslide.

    “Congressman Jeb Hensarling (R-TX), Chairman of the House Republican Study Committee, today issued the following statement”
    “In my heart and in my mind, I believe that this plan is fraught with unintended consequences, would force generations of taxpayers to pick up the tab for Wall Street losses, and could permanently and fundamentally change the role of government in the American free enterprise system. Once the government socializes losses, it will soon socialize profits. If we lose our ability to fail, we will soon lose our ability to succeed. If we bail out risky behavior, we will soon see even riskier behavior.”

    Please tell me someone heard Mark offer his brilliant insight into culture’s role in the oil markets. what a scholar.

    Props to #8…well played, sir/madam….well played.
    An aside: You can cut the tension between Marky-Mark H-Dog and Erin B with a knife.
    I still think Haines is Maria B’s father but have no proff.

    #17 – I cashed mine in. With MMF breaking the buck, it’s like the man said, “There’s noplace safe this side of the grave.” Give ‘em 10% this year or give ‘em 50% next year when they up the taxes on every asset ever to pay for all this, up to you.
    And my regular stocks are only up 16% on the year, too. Fuck.

    #17. Not poor. The company 401K was not good for the employee and, for a while, the IRA was deductible.

    Haines is a drunk glad-handling good ole boy with an appropriate level of disdain for the new chick on the block (who I happen to think is proving herself rather cutely… I mean nicely. Damn.)
    But get it right… Dennis Kneale is the true sycophant suck up, seeking contradictory and inflammatory positions like a supermarket tabloid. He is the devil and should be shot with a silver bullet. And replace him with Courtney Regan or some other piece of eye candy.

  23. Posted by guest | September 29, 2008 at 11:32 AM

    dennis kneale is absolutely the worst, but he’s been on less and less and less as of late. maybe cnbc is figuring out that everyone hates that blowhard retard.

  24. Posted by guest | September 29, 2008 at 12:22 PM

    Seriously. If I want news I’ll read DB.
    I vote for a catfight between Courtney, Erin and Trish.

    CNBC had a good show at one time. Mark was part of the show. His comments and inputs alway seemed to come from a unique perspective.

    Now that there are just two on the show, we as views, are getting too much of Mark’s “attitude”. I am not an Erin supporter but both are displaying non-professional actions and comments in the wrong venue. I have never seen such a display of self indulged individuals broadcaster acting as children in a public venue.

    I like to watch CNBC for market updates. I believe the producer should get a handle on their reporting “characters” or lose market share for good reasons. Mark’s treatment of guests is not acceptable. I have to believe CNBC is having a difficult getting quality guests. Mark and Erin should be quickly replaced because for their lack of professionalism!!!! I am tired of watching them. If I had to pick one, I would go with Erin because she at least tries to keep the program at a fast pace.
