Jim Cramer loses it...more than usual. Cheesy

Apparently he's upset that Bernanke won't bail out his Wall Street buddies.

No offense, but I'm getting pretty sick of all this "sky is falling" crap I keep hearing about the housing market.

I mean, seriously, the sky has been falling for, what, four years now?

About a year actually.

It's just been since spring though that big money realized they were going to lose money.

Blast from the Past...

The company that started this topic was bailed out this past Friday, precipitating a fall of almost 50% in its stock value, and will probably cease to exist this coming week, either bought by J.P. Morgan or J.C Flowers, or if there are no buyers, most likely bankruptcy.

JP Morgan has agreed to acquire the company for $2 per share

It was worth $57 on Thursday, and a year ago was worth $150.
