CNBC host Jim Cramer says business leaders, “Hate Obama like Jimmy Carter.”
Mediaite reported:
CNBC’s Jim Cramer reported Friday morning on Squawk on the Street that he’s hearing from business leaders off-camera that Obama is hated by business leaders. “The disdain is off the charts! This guy, he is hated like Jimmy Carter!”
Cramer’s candid insight came after news from anchor Melissa Lee that there was a sadness about the economy from many traders and about how The Conference Board said there was a 45% chance of the US going into recession. “They say that since 1988, every time that The Conference Board predicted the chances were higher than 40%, we soon went into a downturn. I just throw that out there in the context of it looks like the support for the American Jobs Act is unraveling a bit from both sides of the aisle for that matter. Could the writing be on the wall for President Obama’s presidency?”
They’re being too kind. Obama is much worse than Carter.

Somewhere, Jimmy Carter is doing his happy dance.

Carter was an idiot. Obama is a malicious Communist fraud.

Fully agree. . . Obama is a know nothing, do nothing radical
No one has much on his background, his former girlfriends, friends, or school transcripts. . . I bet he still is an indonesian citizen and that is how he got into college here. . .
He is a blank slate. .I am almost sure that there are others behind him (Sorros) pulling on his strings. .
Look at this too. . planned for today. . by his goonion and acorn buddies as well as Bill Ayers
http://www.usdayofrage.org/
And all the black youth flash mobs. . .this is being orchestrated. .these are NOT random events. .
Obama wants to create chaos. .he is an Agitator. . .
Obama – - Incompetent, Inept, Inexperienced . . . and Radical too!!
Ipso Facto commented:
I can’t tell you how many times I have heard people say that if Obama keeps going (doing unheard of radical things) at the rate he was going, that he’ll never make it through 4 years.
We can only hope that the number of his arrogant indiscretions is now approaching a critical mass that will completely do him in. If we’re lucky, perhaps someone will come forward (a lot of people have to have 1st hand damning information) with a real smoking gun and the charlatan will be caught red-handed. Doesn’t it look like he’s on the precipice right now?

Cramer should know it’s not just business leaders that hate Obama.
The Human Wrecking Ball is despised by most people.

The question is–are they going to donate like crazy to his election campaign like they did last time?

why say it off camera…they should have been saying it since day 1 of zeros being elected
Multitude commented:
Carter was an incompetent fool who had a particular problem (and intense, irrational fear) of bunny rabbits.
Obama’s an inexperienced radical Leninist who has a particular problem with business persons, Christians, middle class suburb types, soccer moms and all other symbols of the Americana he deeply and passionately hates.
I’d say there’s a little difference between the two. And incidentally, in my Fortune 500 workplace, political expression is of course quite frowned upon, but the extent of open disdain for “the government” (which is code for Obama and the Progressive fascists) has become remarkable. Even people I’ve never known to really care (the types that shrug their shoulders in acceptance that most things in life are unfair and they can’t effect anything in the political sphere) are outright angry.
We don’t have any more to give in our paychecks. Telling us it’s our duty to pay 10x for faux green lightbulbs made in China, telling us we need to pay a higher tax so some Obama crony or union worker can shovel money into their pockets, or simply fleecing us more for some ideological desire conjured up by some academic who’s never actually tested out their crackpot idea in the real world, all are beyond our tolerance.

OT…. You have got to watch this one. The president can not tell your sheriff what to do. Jan Brewer could be a little nervous right now she was secretary of State when BHO/ aka’s registered in her state and she approved him!

But, but, Jim – he’s your hero, if I remember correctly. I know you feel Huntsman would be a great president too.
Conservative Ken commented:
Carter was a liberal who believed in the liberal utopian ideal. A fool yes, but an honest one.
Obama, an incompetent as well. He is a fool and a tool. His job is to fill the Office of President and sign the papers Team Soros tells him to. Remember, he ran for President as a ghost. No voting record, no transcripts, no court cases tried, and scant personal history. He is not the product of Liberal American Politics but of Cuban revolutionary Communism. He is a political Jack the Ripper and the White House is his Whitechappel.
Sandy commented:
Its not sadness we feel about the economy out here in the hinterlands–ITS FEAR. We have a President who’s got a job he obviously can’t handle who we now hear is clinically depressed and bored. While the Middle East is beating war drums we watch as our economy and the American Dream of home ownership becomes a nightmare.
The American people thought it would be fun to actually elect an American Idol as President — NOW THAT MAKES ME SAD.
Dittogirl commented:
Its not only the business community. Americans of all stripes hate him. Ive never seen anything like this. Democrats made a huge mistake letting this guy run, and they are going to pay for this one for decades.
And they know it. But its too late to correct, isnt it? Now they will also fall on the sword for thier fake Messiah. They aint seen nothing yet!

Ginger commented:
btw… It is frightening and I know dog gone well that the electronic voting machines are rigged and ready to go on the 2012 election. Mr. Madison is right that if not changed Barry the kenyan fraud will be re- elected! Get your states to get rid of the electronic voting machines and go paper and help pay for them if your state uses the excuse they do not have the money. Remember with Reid he was 5% behind Angle but won the election and in his own district he only won by a 100 or so votes. In one or so districts the machines went down for a while…and the union SEIU maintained them????? It is going to happen all over the US.
David commented:
With an additional $5 trillion in national debt and counting, and a Middle East which is out of control, unfortunately the damage has been done

Business Leaders: “The Disdain for this Guy, They Hate Obama Like Jimmy Carter”
I wonder how many in the White House are quietly high-fiving this remark.
Patty commented:
You would think that a community organizer would be a bit better then a Peanut Farmer. I thought that you needed just a bit more experience. LOL
Both men are liberals and their ideas so strange and opposite of what Americans have wanted.
Obama is definitely more left than Carter. Worlds more and I was trying to give O the benefit of the doubt…but Oh, my goodness…both are disastrous for America. But Obama is the worst of the two.
BTW, this topic was just asking for more complaints for Obama. And well, I feel for it, hook line and sinker.
USMC Thomas commented:
What other time has the most powerful country in the world ever given the controls to somebody they knew so little about.
A dogcatchers employment application would require more disclosure.
JPeden commented:
“So if it is this bad, why does the market rally?” day traders — “odds” — “safety” — hope –autotrading — baiting — greed — p/e’s — feeling good — insiders — free trade et al– it’s a “nnarket” —— [nny keys are kaput!]
Scott commented:
What? Were they surprised? Obama made no secret of his marxist business school approach to economics. He declared openly that he thought the constitution was flawed because it didn’t address redistribution…I remember the fools on CNBC swooning over the baby marxist back in 2008…That was about when I quit watching them altogether…
Scott commented:
Americans need to understand economics 101…Businesses produce jobs. Yet, we have the most anti-business President in the history of our nation. He demonizes corporations yet corporations, or businesses produce the goods we use and the jobs that employ us…Obama is destroying our very livlihood…His thinking has no place outside of misguided undergraduate dorm room bull sessions…He will prove to have been a very very expensive mistake for all Americans…
Stuart commented:
“So if it’s so bad why do the markets rally?”
That is precisely the problem, no one knows. The game by now is so rigged, with so many invisible strings attached, that no one can trust anything anymore.
The average American stockholder is sitting there at the poker table like a hick cowboy wondering how Snidley Whiplash keeps drawing aces.
Militant Conservative commented:
Dark sideous stokes again.
Radegunda commented:
USMC Thomas commented: “What other time has the most powerful country in the world ever given the controls to somebody they knew so little about.”
Not just that, but what was known about him (by those paying attention) was mostly bad. It was a bout of mass insanity that put Obama in the White House. I can’t fathom why large numbers still say they like him personally even if they have doubts about his policies.
Laura Ingraham has a little mantra:”He may be the nicest guy in the world; he’s got a lovely family, beautiful kids, blah blah, but his policies are wrong.” Does she have any evidence that he’s a nice guy, beyond the superficial glad-handing stuff? Why does she credit him with good intentions, when his punkish, devious, malignant character is so obvious?
Blackbird commented:
I’ve said it before and I will say it again, Obama is the worst of Carter and Nixon rolled together. With a dash of campus communist and Jim Jones thrown in just for fun. I wonder just how many liberals, especially the young, do not understand the kool-aid reference.

Becaused the euro is going to fall, and as bad as we are ,they are much worse off.
Spider commented:
Cramer’s a goof ball. He is usually trying to curry favor with O’s administration.
He occasionally slips up and reveals the truth; they he gets called out and quickly retreats.
His careless honesty will not be treated kindly by the powers that be.
Blackbird commented:
Yes, the Euro is going to fail. Socialism is tyranny of the masses, and the majority in the EU have spoken loud and clear. They would rather ride the falling system into the ground rather than even try to pull back on the yoke. So the obvious action for us is to allow all of the EU banks to trade as many Euro as they want for US Dollars through the Federal Reserve, right?

I can give you 2 quick reasons.
1. Massive infusion of cash printed by the fed.
2. The dropping dollar means the value is less for those dollars so the market has corrected for what the value is.
Jer-Jer commented:
“Give me control of a nation’s money supply, and I care not who makes it’s laws. Mater Amschel Rothschild, founder of the Rothschild banking dynasty.” Folks, it doesn’t matter who is in office. The Shadow Government controls the strings of all our Puppet Presidents. And they have us shooting at and fighting each other – lmao
Questionman commented:
NOPE – Obama has not taken anyone’s place just yet. That comes afterward! Right now, BUSH holds the WORLD RECORD and AMERICA’S WORST PRESIDENT in HISTORY. Not ONE WAR has ever been WON in 150 years with a Republican President at the Helm. They can start things they can never finish. OBAMA did BAG and TAG OSAMA BIN LADEN at a cheap price, BUSH can never lay claim to anything but getting the WRONG MAN and ZERO WMD’S after spending a FORTUNE on CRAZY. We called Carter and Bush the worst AFTER they left!
