Another revealing peek behind the MSM curtain...
I was just watching CNBC's Closing Bell and pretty hostess Erin Burnett was speaking with Mad Jim Kramer. Jim was being his usual self when talking about the day's movers and shakers. That out of the way he bagan to talk about the overall situation saying that what that money men have been trying is not working and that the economy needs some "creative thinking", inferring (at least to me anyway) that the guys in charge have no idea what their doing (maybe he actually said that).

Anyway, Erin then cuts him off and says "Jim, you know I love you to death but your doing what we here in the new business call "maiking it heavy". So, you need to lighten up and get the heck out of here."

You may remember Erin. She's the lady that called * "the chimp" when referring to video of the chimp with France's Sarkozy a few weeks back.

1. The guys in charge know exactly what they are doing.
They have been robbing us blind for the last 7+ years with the complicity of the corrupt Bush administration.

2. She's also the one who said to be "careful what we wish for"
When insisting that products from China not be poisonous. Because they wouldn't be as cheap anymore. :wow:

She's something else, that Erin.

3. Oh yea that's right! I forgot about that. I'm still not sure she
wasn't misinterpreted with that remark. I hope it was a case of what she was trying to say just didn't come out right. She seems rather cynical of her role in the amoral game she finds herself on the wrong side of.

At least I hope so.
