To recap: last month Jim Cramer said that Nouriel Roubini was "intoxicated" with his own "prescience and vision." Roubini responded with "Cramer is a buffoon," and the alleged court jester, who loves it when you tell him he sucks, invited Dr. Doom onto his show to say it to his face. Perhaps ticked that he's yet to be taken up on the offer, JC came back with a PS this morning:
Today Roubini, my favorite perma-panda, takes on Warren Buffett in a piece entitled "We Can't Subsidize the Banks Forever," in the Op-Ed section of the Wall Street Journal. This debate reminds me of the Pope v. Stalin when Stalin responded to the query about the pope being an opponent with "How many divisions does he have." The simple truth is that the professor can't stand up to the nation's bank arbiter and this veiled attack seems like sour grapes as the answer isn't that we subsidize banks forever, it is that we subsidize them for as long as we have to. Does Roubini favor nationalization because he has people short through this RGE Monitor outfit? Is that what this is all about?Cramer Calls Out Roubini [TRB]

DB is above Creamer's buffoonery.
Please resist from giving this guy a platform henceforth.

Cramer is such an idiot. He could be right this time, after all you make enough market calls eventually you will be right. However Roubini called this thing from the get go. does cramer have a bunch people he got long thru his TSC outfit or cnbc outfit or any other press outing he has had?
How many times has cramer called the bottom? its like the strategy in blackjack where you just keep doubling your bet each time you lose, with enough money probabilities say you will eventually win.
Cramer is dangerous. he was one of the ones touting subrime would be contained, now we are supposed to believe he somehow got some foresight?

Right or wrong, Santelli comes across as such a cock.
I hope Liesman punches him in the throat next time he is in town.

Less Cramer and more Noel women...Everytime I see their picture I can't help thinking those long chins would be a perfect place to set my spoon while dipping the ol' teabag...if ya know what I mean.....

@11. Liesman is a bigger douche. I don't know what's going on over there but I can't watch for 5 min these days.

Bess,
Can you finally write the piece examining the upward trajectory of Cramer's picks a few weeks before he touts them (meaning, I want you to break who the recipient of these tips is and who is dumping the stock upon the tout) see Barrons article a few months ago. Stewart forgot to address this
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 12:41PM
@19 - Santelli could take Liesman, even after a sucker punch. Those Itai's are crazy.

What happened to Ron Insana's hedge fund?
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 12:47PM
@25- really? first, it was a fund of funds. second, he closed it, and took a job at SAC. now he's back at cnbc.
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 12:48PM
I'd love to see Cramer take on that blowhard Roubini. Cramer would make him his bitch just like he did with Jon Stewart.
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 12:50PM
Santelli has crazy eyes. Liesman = Baby Huey. No contest.
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 12:54PM
Who is this Dylan Ratigan guy you all keep referring to? And Liesman looks like one of the Ferengi from the second generation Star Trek TV show.

@23- How about this story: Cramer is a windsock blowing in the market breeze, he recommends stocks that have been running for a couple weeks, because he is very good at explaining what has already happened. Since he is the last one at the party, they then sell off after he pumps them. This would explain the "mysterious" price movements.
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 1:06PM
@23 Cramer's not that smart.
cause: stock goes up
effect: Cramer recommends
(not the other way around)
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 1:13PM
@26 is clearly Ron Insana.

Roubini breaks wind in Cramers general direction.

@22 Sorry, too subtle. Can you spell it out for me?
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 1:53PM
I suspect that Santelli's fighting style would be similar to that of the little "tribal" guy in the second Ace Ventura movie.
Ya, I paid to see it.

Jim Cramer said that Nouriel Roubini was "intoxicated" with his own "prescience and vision." Roubini responded with "Cramer is a buffoon,"
So at which point is either gentleman wrong?
Posted by guest , May 05, 2009 4:04PM
Cramer had a chance to be a tough guy, but Jon Stewart made him shit his pants. Cramer you're not only a buffoon you're also a pussy.

If a group of geese are a gaggle;
a group of quail are a bevy;
a group of fish are a school;
what do you call a group of douchebags?
Seriously; we have them all over, not just financial media, so we can't just call it CNBC, UBS, or whatever.
Suggestions?
