Could this be a sign of things to come?

Now that CNBC Chicago Mercantile Exchange reporter Rick Santelli has mysteriously disappeared from the spotlight after his criticism of President Barack Obama's mortgage proposal in February and now that CNBC "Mad Money" host Jim Cramer has been marginalized after his lackluster appearance on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" on March 12, could the new target of the Obama machine and the left and their accomplices in the media be CNBC "The Kudlow Report" host Larry Kudlow?

James Rainey, a columnist for The Los Angeles Times, set his sights on Kudlow in his March 13 column. Kudlow's show is one of the last vestiges of pro-free market capitalism left at a time when populism has become the theme of the day.

If these bloggers & FReepers didn’t recognize yellow rags like the LAT & repeat what clowns like Matthews and Olbermann at MSNBC said, no one know what they had to say and care even less!

Santelli announced that he had a pre-planned vacation so people would not think that he was being kept off of the air because of the controversy.

Kudlow obviously is no longer on drugs. But those who believe in Obama’s economic policy’s sure look like they are.

During the Bush administration, or any past presidents, did we see critical voices in the media being singled out for punishment or ridicule?

Bush had plenty of critics from day 1, but, was there a concerted effort from the Bush White House to single out his critics in the media?

I think that I have heard more criticism of reports, commentators, etc. by the Obamabots in his short time so far in office than I ever heard from any other presidents or presidential flunkies.

And, how ironic it comes from a president who pledged to change the tone in Washington, who wanted to be post-partisan, who didn’t want to play these political games and keep score of who said what about whom.

Kudlow worked for Reagan. He has a really good show, although he did a little fawning for Obama when George Will invited those conservative commentators to his house for dinner with Obama.

Obama and Kudlow share a former habit in common.

Kudlow at one time may have been a Dem but I think Ronald Reagan cured him of that illness. When he shared a program with Cramer (Kudlow and Cramer), it was Jim who was the known Dem.

Kudlow is a blowhard. CNBC muzzled their realists and are showcasing the cheerleaders.

Santelli must’ve learned a few things in his ‘conversation’ from the WH invitation, like, for example, an envelope containing every shred of information and pictures on everything about his family & friends & relatives & people who owe him $$ and to whom Santelli owes $$ are in Some0ne’s top left-hand drawer.

Next up. Rush. Then Cramer. Then ________________ (anyone who gets in the way of Some0ne).

Kudlow is no tool and is certainly not a blowhard. Blowhards are those who talk with no evidence to back up their arguments. Kudlow know his stuff. For those of us who follow macroeconomic trends and events Kudlow is one of the best and articulate spokesmen for the conservative side of economic policy. In fact he is being considered as a potential candidate vs Dodd in Connecticut. He never fawned over Obama’s policies after he attended the White House dinner. He is one of the few Conservative voices on MSNBC and his show is one I try to listen to daily. It bothers me when supposed conservative attack one of their own. Especially one who would make a wonderful economically conservative Senator from the Liberal northeast.

You know WTF you are talking about. Kudlow is a real gem, the real thing. If anybody has any doubt about this guy, listen to him on WABC radion at 10:00 am Saturday mornings. It on the web.
