I gotta find a different way

to start my day, so I don't get too upset, too early, watching 'Rick the Dick' Santelli continue his unabashed assault on reality, as CNBC, the financial channel, gives him a platform, (a few minutes each morning) to spout his right wingnut BS. Today, his 'guest' who just happened to agree with him, confirmed Rick's two main talking points. First, the Obama administration is virulently 'anti-business', although all the exchanges, Dow, Nasdaq, S&P are at ALL TIME HIGHS, more than doubling after the Bush catastrophe, with businesses reporting record profits. Second, he keeps saying inflation is a HUGE problem, and the gov't isn't using the correct measurement, although it's the EXACT same as it's been for decades, and DEFLATION is more of a concern to the policy setters because it is more real and more dangerous. BUT, does being wrong every day for over FIVE YEARS, and giving advice that would have caused any follower to 'lose his ass' in the markets make 'Rick the Dick' reconsider? Of course not! He's got the other right wingnuts urging him on and calling him a hero. It gets SO old. Remember the little boy who cried 'Wolf?'........
