Ali Velshi is a fucking douchebag.
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 03:14 PM by Harvey Korman
It has to be said.

All this guy fucking does is whistle past the graveyard and give advice that's useful to no one except the very well off.

First he helped sell the bailout, while opposing curbs on CEO pay. Now he's on CNN talking about how this is all normal and if you have the "stomach" (and of course, the extra cash) to stay in the market, everything will be peachy soon enough.

CNN needs a new financial analyst.

3. If you have the Bloomberg channel i would suggest you watch that, it's far more
real world, no flashy graphics and very nuts and bolts.
