Is CNBC's Steve Liesman Retarded?

I always thought his brains must have fallen out of his head with hair.  For whatever reason, Liesman once again shows his complete lack of knowledge about economics as he shows himself to be the strawman for the Fed:

This one's for you, Steve:

We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw...from T.S. Eliot's, "The Hollow Men"


  1. People yelling at each other over falling trees, only on CNBC.

    It's sad that people are so stupid that they have to use examples like falling trees or burning houses (this one was the favorite of Obama and Bernanke *if you're neighbours house is burning yada yada*) to make their point. This clearly illustrates that they've got nothing, they're empty suits, men who talk the talk, but don't walk the walk.

  2. k - I'm assuming you're kidding. Santelli is spot on. Liesman is a schill.

  3. Is Steve Liesman retarded?

    Obviously a rhetorical question.

  4. Somebody should kick his ass (Liesman, that is).

    Just kidding.

    Not really.

  5. Dave,
    I love it when Santelli gets riled up! It like the Jerry Springer of finance TV. All we need is some midgets and some thrown chairs (duck Geraldo Rivera) and I would be hooked.

    Any ideas on why Silver is not running with the golden bulls?

  6. Steve Liesman is infact a retard. He is wrong time and time again. He is likely a schill for the federal reserve.
