Talking head melts down on CNBC

That "talk to you like a 2 year old, nod your head" thing is something they've all talked about OFF camera and this guy had tried to get answers and couldn't, which really is an nswer, just not one any of us want to hear. He looks like he's wiggin out and trying to provoke someone to start saying some truth.... we're all screwed and maybe, just mabe he is trying to process it. I don't think he's drunk, maybe buzzed slightly.... maybe hoppin mad tho. Interesting video.

Actually Jeff is playing around with comments made on an earlier segment. He knows his sh*t and is probably tired of playing the game.

I think part of the reason he seems crazy is because the clip is out of context, he is mocking the interviewer and he seems legitimately pissed/stunned.

He doesn't look like he's on drugs to me...I think his mannerisms would be much more erratic.

Is that a bag of coke in his hand at 57 seconds in? Wow.

"You are a den of Vipers.I intend to rout you out and by the Eternal God I will rout you out."

I have been talking to the car people. It's easy...just go down to the nearest dealer--assuming its doors haven't been shuttered--and see how the cars are selling. The most amazing realization is that prices have NOT fallen. Could this be due to $4 billion GM got from the government (us) yesterday? Probably. It's hardly a crisis if the Treasuries sends you $4 billion. As a matter of fact, that's hardly free enterprise at all! Prices stay high, no one buys, company suffers, gov't sends check, prices stay high, you get the picture...

Then there's BofA, a company which depends on bailouts to make money. These bailouts are in fact the right to borrow from the Federal Reserve at discount rates! That's been going on a long time.

Now Mackey is a flake, but like some commentators say, people do listen to him. His confused commentary hardly sells itself--it's I guess up to us viewers to decipher what he's really saying.

I'm guessing that Mackey's intended comments were somehow subverted, probably by the editors. Anyone who watches CNBC knows its been taken over by market fundamentalists like Larry Kudlow who preach about how the economy's bottomed out, etc.. So the agenda is there--better say we've bottomed or find work outside the mass media.

He says it at around 1:10

That's a dead giveaway that he's on crystal meth. It's so obvious that he's tweaking especially when he uses that term! And look at his erratic facial expressions. This is all classical behavior for people that are tweaking, i.e. been up for days on meth. He says ""But you're kind of tweaked, and you get this joke." In other words, he's so delirious that he thinks the interviewer is on meth too. He's lost touch with reality. I've been around people that are tweaking. This is exactly how they are.
