Cramer begs Fed Reserve Chairman to cut interest rates (video)

I've been a fan of Jim Cramer for many years, and I've seldom seen him flip out as epically and fantastically as he does in this clip.

On CNBC's Mad Money Friday, he screamed at Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke to slash interest rates, to help the stock market. Video Link. The money quote: "No, we HAVE Armageddon."

Also, is it just me, or does he look pretty awesome at 62? (* in fact he's not, it's a running joke on the show). But the lame-ass bobblehead is utterly unconvincing. (thanks, Kent!)

Update: Patrick Nielsen Hayden points us to an amusingly annotated copy of this Cramer video:


Video Link. Smart and snarky. I don't know anything about video makers "iTulip.com" but their gloss
on Cramer's epic seizure seems pretty reasonable to me. They mostly
seem to be saying, "Wait, exactly where were you promised your
business model would always work?"

While Jim Cramer makes for some mildly amusing entertainment, he is actually a pretty horrible analyst, and as studies have shown, people who actually take his advice have a greater than 50% chance of losing their shirts. Link.
