CNBC silenced Dylan Rattigan... kidl, thanks. What a shame. Rattigan was one of the few mainstream anchors who would speak the truth (Lou Dobbs another)and was surely the most honest and outspoken on CNBC... (ignoring Cramer's faux PR stunts). I'm sending CNBC an email, and I hope you all do to. It has little chance of getting Rattigan his job back, but let's tell CNBC what we think about such pom-pom waving, empty suits as Bob Pisani, Bill Griffith, and King of the Suck Ups - Joe (can you get me comp'd for 18 holes?) Kernen. That's my .02, SOTB PS: Please pass the puke bag... re: Obama telling us about how he "got his start" fighting for lost steel jobs. What a duplicitous liar. He's leading the further gutting of America's industrial base, just as scripted long ago by his puppeteers. Remember his campaign lie... When he told those factory workers that he would roll back GATT & renegotiate NAFTA... only to have Austen Goolsbee run to the Canadians and assure them, that it was - "just campaign rhetoric?" Did Brzezinski get his wish come true with Obama, or what... Zbigniew Brzezinski, CFR member, first director of the Trilateral Commission, and President Carter's National Security Advisor in his 1970 book, Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era. "In the technetronic society the trend seems to be toward aggregating the individual support of millions of unorganized citizens, who are easily within the reach of magnetic and attractive personalities, and effectively exploiting the latest communication techniques to manipulate emotions and control reason....Power will gravitate into the hands of those who control information....Human beings become increasingly manipulable and malleable." --Zbigniew Brzezinski
