Maybe, just maybe, the single coolest thing I’ve ever seen on CNBC. Rick Santelli heard just about enough of Jim’s lies today (Tuesday, January 22, 2008). So, he called ol’ Jimbo out. What a glorious moment! The first time a CNBC-ite challenged their King. (No disrepect to you, Mr. Santelli, but Jim Cramer was crowned, King Shill the First in 2005.) The really neat thing is this: Although Jim got all huffy and tough sounding, and said how “bearish” he had been (you’ll see what I mean), I added some cute video clips that show that Rick Santelli was right: Jim was pounding people into stocks all last year. And, I do mean ALL. Enjoy! donharrold

Rat Says: Jim Cramer, aka CNBC’s Mad Money host is blown out of the water by Rick Santelli. RatTube has sung Rick Santelli’s praises since the market has become a political issue. He and Art Cashin are the only regulars on CNBC that tell the truth.

The only criticism of Rick I would have is that he isn’t tough enough on Cramer. Rat would bring up Cramer’s war mongering with larry Kudlow that borders on treason(they were 100% wrong about everything). Then you have Cramer’s defense of the illegal naked shorting terrorist and you wonder why GE keeps him employed. Wait no you don’t, GE is heavily into banking and profits greatly from war. It all makes sense now, look for a reason for GE/NBC to get rid of Rick Santelli, he is cutting into their RICO profits.
