Re: Do you think Obama will get the US out of the economy crisis?



Now at least some Obummer supporters are beginning to realize what their idiotic visions of "hope" brought them. Here's Jim Cramer from today's Today show:
Cramer: 'This is the Greatest Wealth Destruction by a President' | NewsBusters.org

Some of the transcript:
CRAMER: ...We still have an invisible treasury secretary. We haven't seen him since I spoke with you last.

LAUER: He's going to testify on the Hill this morning about the budget.

CRAMER: That will be pleasant to see him. I hope he doesn't throw the drowning man the anvil like he did the last time he spoke.
.
.
LAUER: ...We had a stimulus package, we had a housing bailout, we've got efforts to save the banks. People would say that's fast action. Why hasn't it worked?

CRAMER: We have an agenda in this country now that I would regard as being a radical agenda. I think that we had a budget that came out that basically put a level of fear in this country that I have not seen ever in my life, and I think that that changed everything.

LAUER: So, the policies are not shareholder-friendly?

CRAMER: Shareholder-friendly? This is the most, greatest wealth destruction I've seen by a president.

I think it was this episode of NewsBusted that said it best. Unfortunately, I'm having trouble getting it to load so that I can verify it:
YouTube - NewsBusted 2/24/09

One of the jokes in it:
"We expected Obama was going to redistribute wealth. We just didn't anticipate that he'd eliminate it altogether".

I've got a feeling there's going to be a LOT of buyer's remorse soon.
