So far two different CNBC financial anchors have gone after President Obama and his economic plans. I have to say that after watching The Daily Show last night I can only conclude that these folks didn't think these moves through. Rick Santelli and Jim Cramer made some of the worst recommendations and predictions in the financial world last year bar none and unfortunately for them there is plenty of tape of their shows to prove it. Now if left to the mainstream media to report on their EPIC FAILS from last year to all of their viewership I guess they probably would have gotten away with taking these pot shots at the White House. But thankfully we have Jon Stewart to stand up and report the news the way others won't. Now it appears that the rants by Santelli and Cramer were meant to gin up some populist rage. But its a funny thing about populist rage, its usually not all that precisely aimed and pretty easily be switched from one target to another without much effort. So you see CNBC folks, you should be careful about trying to get people to go grab their torches and pitchforks because when they are reminded about your complicity in their financial problems it might be YOUR door that they end up marching to.
