Actually, Cramer isn't nearly as much of a suck-ass as Gasparino. Otherwise, yeah, I don't see too much difference. Wouldn't it be great if they got arrested for something and got sodomized in prison?

Yeah, I don't have any angst right now.

Maybe Jimbo and Charlie G. can both switch hit.

Is it too late to get Jimbo convicted for a crime he didn't commit so he can get sodomized in prison?

C'mon, Billy, just come out and say it: you want Uncle Sam to bail out your up-to-it's-ass-in-trouble portfolio.

The media is pretty much clueless about what's going on in the financial markets - and has been clueless for a while, so I wouldn't expect it to be any different right now.

By the way, great coverage this weekend. Dealbreaker has been, far and away, the best place for news on this unfolding debacle.

Christ, I'm sick of politicians. To quote some movie I once saw, "We are so fucked."

I'm thinking of going native and moving to the Amazon. What? They burned down the Amazon! Oh, fuck.

OK, seriously, who's the ding dong who proffered the response that stocks, in fact, will not always go up.

For the love of God, can't we at least have sarcasm anymore?

I mean, at least until that's banned as well.

P.S. I am now drinking heavily. Someone please wake me up when it's 2012.

I mean, at least until the SEC classifies it as "rumor mongering" and "being really, really mean" and bans it from all market-related blogs.

49-I'm already awake. And in a pool of sweat and shit. At least by 2012 the Republic of Americastan will have universal (i.e. nonexistent and totally crappy) healthcare.

What the hell does it even matter anymore? With this freaking ridiculous systemic bailout, these guys can continue acting like fucking pinheads because they now know that Uncle Sam will be there to pay their dinner checks at the end of the night.

What a fucking crock.

That's not true. There are plenty of rules.

Such as: no financial institution, major investment fund, or anybody on the planet will ever be required to take a loss on a long position.

Or another personal fave: There shall be no disclosure of corporate holdings. Ever. Even if they're worthless. Ever, ever, ever. Goddammit, I said never!

And the coup de grace: From now on, I will not be known as Chairman Bernanke. Refer to me as "God" or "His Royal Highness, the Wondrous and Intensely-Sexy-Even-With-His-Beard-and-Bald-Chrome-Sir-Ben".

#2 - Apparently we do need rules, because it seems that most of us are so misguided as to believe that, you know, we live in a free market or something.

I just read that the SEC has banned all us from ever speaking out against them again. Ever.

The Fed has now joined forces with them to set up a special "temporary" Term Auction Gulag where all us haters will temporarily be "vacationing" until our all "destabilizing" information is wiped completely from our minds.

It's also just been announced that Dealbreaker.com will be forced to pay $2 billion into our new Bailout Fund because they were "mean" and made Ben and Hank "feel bad". Also because they've used the word "fuck" repeatedly, and "fuck" has now been banned in relation to any and all discussions of the financial markets.

I just read that any negative comments whatsoever related to the stock market are now banned, and it is likely that we will be sent to a Thai prison for this entire thread.

Additionally, Bernanke and Paulson have just announced that an additional $100 billion will be used to rescue people who have had their feeling hurts in any way, shape or form; got their milk money stolen in school when their were a kid; and ever put a dollar bill into a Coke machine only to have it malfunction and got nothing.

I blew a couple hundy on a stripper the other night. If I submit my receipt to my local Fed branch, can I get bailed out, too?

What a bunch of ass clowns.

@88 - I have crazy pimping skills that are far, far too big too fail, even though my strippers are more toxic than Angelo Mozilo's freaky orange tan. Fortunately, they two-time with Uncle Ben, rubbing their G against his bald chrome, panting, "Oh Benny! We just love IT when you debase the dollar like that! Bailouts make me so HOT!"

So I figure I've got a little blackmail incentive for a "redemption" of my ATM expenditures for the evening.

I'd have thought the banking shutdown story was rumor as well - until I came across it on an entirely different site - Financial Sense. (http://www.financialsense.com/fsu/editorials/willie/2008/1002.html)

They're very reputable - not the usual CNBC clowns, but actually guys who know what they're talking about and actually saw this mess coming years ago. That makes me think there may be some truth to it.
