Jesus, why do some people act like idiots as soon as someone puts a microphone in front of them? |

Idiots Jon? Are you saying that MSNBC is not overrun with a severe left wing bias?

No, I didn't say anything like that. What I meant is that anyone going to a GE shareholder meeting to complain about content on MSNBC or CNBC is an idiot. Its like complaining to Jeff Immelt that your GE light bulb burned out after just 6 months. |

GE shareholders do not have a right to complain about the company's products or management direction? |

Comments by a liberal weenie on MSNBC or a conservative wingnut on CNBC have as much to do with GE's board as a light bulb that burns out in 6 months. They have an 800 number for such banalities. You don't bother the CEO with this fecus. Unless of course you're an idiot. |

You bother the CEO about any underperforming asset. MSNBC's bias causes it to underperform. If the CEO cannot and will not listen to the stock holders, perhaps he needs another job. |

Even if I pretend your comment about MSNBC ratings were true, which it isn't, how much do you think that would effect GE's earnings? The shareholder meeting stunt was the ravings of an idiot. Nothing more. It really doesn't deserve any of the attention its getting. |

If Jeff Immelt isn't worried about such banalities he should be fired. I mean it. Ross Perot was tossed off the GM board because he wanted to worry about such banalities. The result of not worrying about such banalities has caused some slippage in GM's position since that time. Build a great car that people want to buy and the bailout talk ends instantly. Same with light bulbs. |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |
