In this article, “Cramer on Obama’s Anti-Wall Street Comments: “We Heard Lenin,” Cramer lets fly: With all the populist sentiment generated from the economic slowdown by politicians, CNBC “Mad Money” host Jim Cramer is seeing eerie similarities with [...]

Comrade Barack Obama once again shows how little of his comfort zone is in America. He recently chided Americans who do not speak other languages. He snickered at them and said that when they go to Europe the only thing they can say in French is “Merci beaucoup“. It’s…It’s…embarrassing when.. when …uh… [sic] Europeans come [...]
