Always has a STRONG viewpoint.

4. Yes, and I watched him all the time. Then they started to give him
editorial license on CNN and he had very conservative view points. I think he has woken up, thank goodness!!!

5. He was one of the anchors on FNN (remember that?) in the 90s

I always liked him on the business/money stuff.

The he became a RW mouthpiece from 2001 through yesterday.

Now: he ROCKS! :headbang:

6. I've never been able to stand him before...
One of those guys that always has a "Clinton was worse" quip when confronted with one of Bushco's shit-on-a-stick moments...I think he's from the old school of conservatism, and I always thought he was kind of mean to those whose opinions don't agree with his...

I also think it will take these kinds of people turning away from the Neo-Cons to bring these bastards down...

Cafferty has ROCKED the past couple of days...(and so has CNN most of the time!). I hope he keeps it up :)

7. He's one mean SOB. But I'm glad he's speaking out on the
side of truth re this catastrophe.

8. Jack came up on local NYC news -- New Yorkers don't take sh**.
That city has to work, and work well, or everything's lost to chaos. And spin doesn't work too well with NYers. Jack won't stand still for this, I don't think, no matter what his politics.
