A lot people have apparently been asking Jim Cramer why, instead of defending himself on the Daily Show, he just rolled over and took whatever Jon Stewart was giving. The answer, Cramer says in an upcoming issue of Time, is that he was “trying to defend our network and take the highroad.” But if you think JC didn’t want to go circus freak crazy on Stewart, you think wrong! Every fiber of his being was screaming “beat this bitch’s ass, you know you want to, just do it. Do it like you do on Mad Money. Do it like you and Spitzer used to in the good old days. Just wail on him.” But no! Cramer held it together and exhibited a level of restraint so foreign to his own identity that even Little Jim was recoiling in disgust. Oh, but that Stewart guy will get what’s coming to him, believe you me. He’ll get his due. Just watch, it’ll happen. If not on set or in his office then in the xerox room or the little conference room near to the kitchen. It will happen. And, as hinted above, it might happen with a rolling pin, and it might happen with Martha, either merely in tow or doing all the actual pounding herself. Just wait.
“I tried not to take it personally, but it was so vicious,” Cramer tells Time magazine, out tomorrow. “The ultimate takeaway from the evening was, Jim, why didn’t you defend yourself? And the answer is, I was trying to defend our network and take a high road and I didn’t want to hit him with a chair or break his face or something like that. But he was very vicious. One day he’ll answer for it.”

sorry cramer – jon answers only to obama, and perhaps also to jaweh.
Cage match!
Ooooh I’m real scared – you bald pussy. Bring it on I’ll send you back to CNBC with a dress on you fag.
Always,
Jon Stewart
so basically he’s a pussy (I could’ve hit him but I didn’t…now I will).
colbert and jarvis have been having words…fight night
throwing Santelli under a bus = “defending my network”
Cramer deserves to ve ripped apart, the guy is a complete hack. Im sure Lloyd and the boys at GS are thrilled that he constantly reminds people that he once worked at Goldman. More people have lost money being misled by this Crazy Eddie wanna be than you can imagine.
A big east coast you’re a tremendous d-bag boo-yah to ya Jim!
Cramer didn’t defend himself because he couldn’t. Stewart had ammo for everything Cramer tried to use to defend himself. He caught JC in a couple lies. There’s nothing he could do. For him to come out and say this is like the kid that backs down from a fight and then starts talking big when the other guy leaves the room. Although JS did go a little far, showed less tact than he could/should have…but such is life.
heyy, nice beehive, anybody got a stick? no? oh, i’ll just go punch it with my hand, i’m sure it’ll be ok
Maybe if Cramer would swing his arms when he walks, this could’ve all been avoided.
(Great Seinfeld reference, Bess)
TGFD would have done an uppercut to the tip of Stewart’s jaw. Good luck to Cramer, he’s one of the best!

Stewart pompously assumed that JC was an actual investment advisor as compared to an entertainer. Serious investers never did trade off of JC’s advice. If stewart had real brains he would have realized that serious investors both small and large were laughing at him for legitimizing JC as a real influential figure in the investing community
@9 True, but he does play one on t.v. no?
like to see Martha beat the shit out of two of the biggest douche bags on tv with her rolling pin
I will officially volunteer to go on The Daily Show and explain all of this crap to Stewart. As a former big fan of his – until he went all holier than though as if he were a finance whiz himself – I’d take great pleasure in laughing at his ignorance, and quite possibly, whooping a fellow NJ-raised heeb’s deserving arse
I fantasize about being double-teamed by Jim Cramer and Jon Stewart. And Martha can use her rolling pin on me.

@13 I never said serious investors did, but serious investors aren’t the people he was targeting. He was targeting average joe investor…who listened. And while it’s not enough to effect the economy, it’s enough to effect people that can’t afford to be given bad advice. Which is what JS was attacking.
“Cramer didn’t defend himself because he couldn’t”
exactly.
I like Cramer and think you are all too harsh on him.
Now if you don’t mind I am now going to return to pounding my secretary in her ass.
Cramer is a turd. I’m glad Stewart mopped the floor with his sorry ass! True that serious investors just view the douche as entertainment but Joe Six Pack is actually listening to the clown and trading. While I firmly believe in the principle that “a fool and his money be soon parted” it sucks that this jackass makes a buck off it.
Stewart should get him on again to kick his all over again!
This is the same kind of thing he did after being completely wrong about bear stearns. “oh yeah, I didn’t mean people should hold bsc stock, I was trying to prevent a run on the bank”. Whatever. Just don’t try and pass off every mistake you make as something you meant to do that everyone just misunderstood.
I think Jeff Macke and Guy Adami are worth their weight.
@20 your secretary told me that despite your small “girth” he wishes you would switch to astroglide if you insist on pitching him so often.
Cramer is a wuss. It’s not like Stewart wished him a happy kidney failure.
Of course Stewart wants Cramer to hang around. He may need more material for a program in the future.
Although one might think TGFD would find Martha Stewart appealing, that is not the case.
There is something about her, a certain uncleanliness in her hair and in her skin texture that makes TGFD think she doesn’t bathe very often.
TGFD has never met her personally, but for one who is considered a diva of good taste, Martha came up short here last year when she attended Winterthur’s annual Point-to-Point gala as a guest of one George “Frolic” Weymouth, flamboyant, well-known, and prominent duPont family member.
There she was, sitting right next to “Frolic” atop his ‘coach and four’ during the coaching portion of the day’s events.
Problem is, while “Frolic” and the other men aboard his coach were wearing morning attire complete with gray top hats, with the ladies all in long dresses, pearls, wide-brimmed hats and gloves, there sat Martha, completely out of place in a dull olive-drab pant suit. No hat. No gloves. No pearls.
Some diva. We all got a good laugh out of it. “Frolic” seemed somewhat embarrassed and subdued the rest of the day, which is very unusual for him.

Assuming that you are attractive woman, I’d gladly indulge your kinky streak. Bonus points if you happen to hail from Eastern Europe and have a pronounced accent, as I’m kind of into that right now.
You’d be amazed at just how much fun office sex can be when you get creative with some phone cords (rope), binder clips (nipple clamps), a stress ball and a rubber band (to keep you quiet) and an absent executive’s office (to ratchet up the thrill factor).
If you’re likely to lose your job…might as well go out with a BANG. (ooohhh SNAP!)

Is it just me or does it look like Kudlow sucks hog?

I like how cnbc says
“People You Trust”
and then shows a picture of Jim Cramer
Are you fucking kidding me
This guy doesnt believe his own bullshit
Hell push anything he can in that comedy hour hes got. He doesnt mind making a few thousand at the expense of the idiots who watch. All he has to do is say hes sorry few mos. later and then sandwich that losing stock with a lot of “winners’ he has chosen.
This idiot’s wife doesnt trust him with the money to feed his kids.
Hello free markets!! As long as you say something forcefully and confidently and perhaps enhance them with some goofy sound effects people will believe you. Cramer can’t stand that all he is a reincarnation of a long line of hucksters in this great country.
Joe Schmo from Cocomo should’ve gone to Wharton instead. Dumb blue-collared bastards.
