"They know nothing!" Jim Cramer

"Cramer knows nothing!" Duchamp2008

"No one has cared about Etta James for about 40 years. That's how long it's been since she was relevant. There's no reason to pay attention to the crazy ravings of this old bag." Duchamp2008

"Obama already has one circus clown in his administration (Biden), he doesn't need another (Dean). Sebelius is an excellent choice." Duchamp2008

"Leahy is dumber than a doorknob (i.e., dumber than G W Bush) if he thinks Obama will waste one iota of energy in going after G W Bush." Duchamp2008

"Al Franken may be the Senator-Elect, but he still looks like Heath Ledger's "Joker" sans greasepaint. " Duchamp2008

"Grandpa McCain is on one of those 36 hour Cialis jags, except it appears to be permanent. He was more tolerable as a verbal stumblebum playing second fiddle to Palin's working class minx persona. Now he just looks like an old coot in need of political euthanasia." Duchamp2008

"Palin was the only reason McCain didn't pull 40% in the general election. His campaign was comatose until he brought his pistol packing momma with the beauty pageant cred on board. Of course, she was also the worst choice he could have made since she wasn't ready to do more than serve as eye candy for the southern tool belt set." Duchamp2008

"Santelli's nose is so far up Kudlow's keister that he can see Kudlow's dentures." Duchamp2008

"Cut Palin some slack, she's got a flipper baby at home to care for as well as her daughter's illegitimate sprog" Duchamp2008

"When I see Limbaugh the words "massive stroke" come to mind." Duchamp2008

"The Family Values family has produced a bastard and unwed teen mom. The potential mother-in-law was peddling Oxycontin. Do we want this sort of family in the White House in 2012?" Duchamp2008

"Ingraham represents the political anorexia of the conservative movement: lean on ideas and starved for a way out of the wilderness, it is prone to purging moderates and bingeing on hatred." Duchamp2008

"Michael Jackson enjoyed portraying a zombie in the Thriller video so much he decided to become one in real life." Duchamp2008

"I suppose Mika is impressive given she's competing with a school of journalistic bottom feeders who thrash around in the oily mud puddle of Morning Joe. To be sure, there is predictable morning radio jock shtick: she plays the straight, reasonable woman (in a perpetual state of tsk tsk-ing mock outrage) in the face of Joe's troglodytisms. However, Mika is primarily an innocuous second fiddle, subject to the typical leering, testosterone-inflected male twittering from her compadres on the set. The episodes with her father are the most painful, in which she invites her partners in punditry to exhibit a level of obsequiousness towards the beau Pere that was last seen at Versailles Court of le Roi Soleil. She's less "one of the boys" than an co-equal among the many mediocrities thrown together by MSNBC in the wake of the demise of its previous arch-troglodyte, Don Imus." Duchamp2008

"The innocuous frat-boy humor of Mr Spirit adds little to the shark-jumping Morning Joe crew. The Geist to MikaJoe to Mad Chatter Dylan morning lineup is unlikely to induce wakefulness among its MSNBC audience members. For those in need of a triple espresso HD shot, I'd like to see MSNBC schedule five prime-time morning hours of the defrocked Jeff Macke and the debunked Jim Cramer." Duchamp2008
