White House needs to Answer CNBC Morons
Without really speaking to them directly, they need to listen (which I'm sure they are, per the Santelli incident) and at least answer the questions that are put forth, and address the issues that are being used to support their GOP propaganda.

Don't do what they want you to, but at least shut them up. Give the poor bastards like myself, that have to listen to their inane droll all day long something to cheer about. Some points they have are worthy of addressing. Not the Right Wing policy they support, but some ideas that are a concern of those talking asses on Wall Street, sitting on the exchange floor ranting about what the Government isn't doing right (thus keeping them from making ass loads of money). These guys are helping the self-fulfilling prophecy that is the market speak on CB NC. Give us something to contradict these asses since the Market continues to tank.

1. nothing IS supporting the propaganda.... It's the usual
astroturfing buffoons, pretending to mean something.

2. I watch Bloomberg...
...it's far more sane. They provide better information with far less bias.

I gave up on CNBC almost a decade ago.

4. I'd love to!
But I can't. Our company just gets the basic cable and it doesn't go up high enough to get to Bloomberg. Plus, the rightwingers in my office probably wouldn't have it.

3. Agree, there was a statement that 40% of the people who
would be helped by the home owner program would still find it hard to maintain their payments even if the rates dropped to 2%.

Not sure if that is BS or there is some truth in the statement, but I did not hear an answer from the administration.

:shrug:


And what about the next group of loans that might need a bailout???
