Jon Stewart Destroys Jim Cramer as a Person

The much talked about brawl between Jon Stewart and Jim Cramer from CNBC aired last night on the Daily Show.

My God. I thought Cramer was going to cry. Stewart had clips of him admitting dodgy tricks that he, as a fund manager could do, in an interview from 2006. Stewart, then turned it on him, and pretty much blamed the loss of granny's 401k on Wall Street shysters such as him. Cramer started to physically shrink and mumble.

I'm not the biggest fan of Stewart, mainly because of his smugness and his kiss-ass audience. But there's no doubting he's a smart guy, and he came to the fight prepared. Cramer did not. Maybe he thought it was going to be good humored banter. It was not. I'm not sure he has his manhood left after that.

For Canadians, you can see the episode here on the Comedy Network.

Breaking: Ted Kennedy Collapses in Capitol Building

I'm watching Fox News. He is suffering from a brain tumor and collapsed in convulsions at the Obama ceremony and was removed by stretcher.

Apparantly he is at the hospital and doing better.

Obama's parade is starting but he and his wife appear sombre, after witnessing the incident.

UPDATE: ABC News have the full run down.

Kennedy was at a table with Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., Vice President Mondale and Mrs. Mondale, and others. While at the table, Kennedy began having seizures that lasted for several minutes. As they were carrying Kennedy out of the room, he was still seizing. President Barack Obama went out of the room with him, but he is back in the luncheon room now.
