Oh, what a heart winching show Tuesday seeing Shawn Hannity interviewing Howard Stern. Shawn performed his Republican Kissing on of all people Howard Stern! My heart went out to Mr. Stern talking about how his reputation had been sullied. How wittle of the zillions of dinero he has actually received. Poor, poor Shawn, acting as if Howie was a naughty Republican, thus was almost asphyxiated being so far up Mr. Stern. Mr. Stern, with a taunt face, briskly powdered CBS's Les Moonves about Mr. Moonves botox use. Shawn showered more empathy onto Mr. Stern, so much so, I thought for a moment Mr. Stern was the Vice President of the United States who had had a shooting mishap and needed himself to take some "friendly fire" on Fox. Were I somebody that counted in the food chain, I would call Mr. Jerry Lewis to do a Memorial Day telethon for Mr. Stern. Instead, I will buy 100 shares of Sirius, which even I can afford thanks to the generous efforts of Mr. Stern.

To keep followers of Cramer updated on a stock mentioned often on his show. Lot of us have bought the stock or thought of the stock or have been burned by the stock. Who would have thought Stern would use FOX to rehabilitate his image, so it was ez to miss.

Both Sirius and XM have taken a beating. I remember the days when both stocks were trading closer to their 52 week highs and Cramer was giving his blessings.

Lucky some of us didn't buy into the hype.

At these points though both stocks are looking oversold and might have a better risk/reward ratio.

I bought Sirius on the hype, but put a Trailing Stop for the Monday after Howie was on "60 Minutes." Cramer taught me this, though he did not pull this stunt with "siri" as he told us how with "ayti" and the xBox. Sirius so far is built on hype. Stern is on tonite for Part II. Hadn't look today, but there may be a bounce with "siri" after he was so pitiful last nite. Hannity milked it for all its worth :)

That's why I have a difficult time taking too much Cramer says seriously. How anybody could say either of these stocks were a buy near their highs clearly misses the big picture. Best short in the world.
It's like I remember watching a lightning round way back when MSO (Martha Stewart) was trading around $26.50. Cramer tells the caller that anything under $25 do a "mon back". I'm thinking, are you insane??? That stock was soooo overvalued it wasn't funny and it still is. He had to know it was trading WAYYYY to high. Sometimes I think he gets caught up in the hype of some companies and doesn't look at the fundamentals of a company at all.

He needs only a weekend show so he is not having to resort to filler material. Other than God, no one--NO ONE--should attempt to "Cramer" daily for 45-minutes. I think he is good, but a nightly TV show is asking too much. Most of his picks have a g-great story, but that is as far as it will ever get. Because he absolutely will not discuss Trading Stops as a way to protect one of his good picks (e.g., calling Google early, but then not having his followers protect themselves on the pull-back). He would look so much better if he protected us Newbies with Trailing Stops.

It was absolutely weird-funny to watch Stern try to suck the viewer into caring about his CBS problem, and Shawni practicing obsequiousness to the degree usually reserved for the Tom DeLay types--You really should watch Part II tonite when such topics as how Stern feels about God will be covered--It is positively hilarious!! I promise! Watch it! You will be amazed just how low Hannity can stoop...

After having Sirius (came with a new car) for a few months, I think this is a company who's future rides on one man - Howard Stern.

Stern's a great businessman and if you do the math on how much he may bring in solely based on his old subscriber numbers, SIRI comes out ahead.

the fact that he can use Fox's prime time show for 2 nights to his own advantage is an example of how good he is at promotion.

You will be laughing so hard you could smother! Trust me, it looks like a darn skit! Hannity and Howard Stern--You can-not get any weirder or lower. Howard wanting us to feel sorry for him, while Hannity acts as if he is talking to Tom Delay--and tonite talking about God--how much better can it get? A sharp stick in the eye? (I also love Cramer sucking up to Donald Trump who is so exclusive he will let Don Imus of MSNBC "Imus in the Morning" skewer him! :)

Hannity pisses me off. He never disagrees with the Republicans no matter how un-Republican they act (overspending, increasing gov't, scandals, etc). He's a lockstepper if there ever was one. What a douchebag.

Yea, and speaking of obsequious, Cramer takes the cake with Trump. Trump is a douchebag too who had help from his daddy. There's no reason to admire him especially with that terrible haircut. Maybe Cramer is a sycophant instead.

What a love fest him and Cramer will no doubt have on Cramer's Anniversary show. Oh, Hannity and Stern's love fest did not help "siri" today, I see. There is Cosmic Justice just when you think there might not be. Maybe tonite the love fest will do the trick. When Hannity gets too old for this job he can always slide over to TV evangelism on TBN--That cable network is a hoot! 24-hrs of Hannities and Sternies and Trumpies in mad, passionate love and people paying their welfair checks and social security payments to their eager hands! I love it!

I agree 100%, not to talk politics, but I lost all respect for Hannity, I use to listen to him every so often, can't do it anymore...the guy is shill.

I still listen to Glenn Beck, at least he will disagree when something is stupid, and he is friggin funny!

Does the name Neal Bortz mean anything to you? Hannity was brought in to replace Bortz on WGST (a lightbulb station in Atlanta) when Bortz went over to WSB (a clear channel station) after Bortz was nipping WSB in the core of Atlanta. Bortz sent Hannity with his tail between his legs to the weekend on WABC in New York and there, somehow Hannity became a star. Now, I like Rush, he is a funny gung-ho Republican, really. Hannity, on the other hand, is plain repulsive, a la big shot TV evangelist.

Just got through watching Part II of the interview. It was even wilder when Stern basically did Hamlet's "To be or not to be" soliquy on religion when Rev. Hannity asked Stern about God. Listening to Stern on CBS's Moonves is surreal, particularly when Stern talks about Moonves's plastic surgery, seeing as how Stern looks as if he is in a plastic surgery race with the pathetic Mick Jagger, ohmygawd! Let's see if Rev. Stern has resurrected "siri" after this performance. Hannity's audience is just the type to buy "siri." :)

I'm not gonna argue party lines, but I consider myself independent. If I had to self-identify I'd say I'm Libertarian. "Do what you want, just don't ask me to subsidize it" is my mantra. Glen Beck's OK, more independent than Hannity but he still hates on gays and **** and touts religious propoganda from time to time. Nothin' against religion just don't bring it in to public policy. And to be honest with you, queers are damn good for the economy with the way they spend their money so they don't bother me. If they're overly fruity it can be annoying but so are certain vociferous ethnic groups in this country.

Now, I like Rush, he is a funny gung-ho Republican, really

Not as bad as Hannity but guilty of the same thing. Rush backs up everything the Republicans do if there are Democrats opposed to it. Rush may uphold traditional Republican values of limited spending, which the Republican aren't doing at this time, but only if the Democrats are against it. But that's about it.

You know the best of the bunch is Michael Savage. That guy doesn't give a sh!t. He rags on all of the so called conservative commentators in fits of rage. You wanna talk about entertainment. Savage is the man. Now I'm not saying I agree with everything he says but the guy has some cojones.

Did anyone see the news on yahoo? S&P just rated SIRI as a strong buy. It seems to be at its low, so hopefully it just goes up from here.

"siri" is a dangerous stock to play with. If it does go up, set yourself a tight Trailing Stop to Sell. To me, it is built on sleeze. Anyway, the best of luck.
