"It’s ‘funny’ how he didn’t become a problem for Jon Stewart until he became a problem for Obama”

So says Jim Treacher about the Jim Cramer's "interview" with Jon Stewart last night. Via Hot Air:

Left unmentioned: The fact that Cramer was an Obama supporter. Oh, and the fact that Stewart’s chief criticism of CNBC, that it could have spared the public an economic catastrophe by investigating and exposing Wall Street’s reckless hyperleveraging, applies to 99.99% of the Obama-adoring media. Cramer’s taking the brunt of it here not for his shady admissions about how to game the market — that’s ancient history — but because, like Treacher says, he had the gall to turn on The One publicly.

At least Cramer hasn't had his legal records rifled through yet...
