4. But he has NO PROBLEM profiting off of GOP businesses.
He's about making money, not politics.

6. Business is business, he's a numbers guy
Good luck playing the stock market if you refuse to invest in companies with GOP ties. DIVERSIFY BABY!

7. I didn't say I don't invest in them myself.
I think Cramer is brilliant and I don't blame him one bit for choosing companies that make money. But just because the guy is registered one way or donates that way doesn't really mean much.

8. I thought that he was a "9/11 changed everything" Democrat
If he's a Democrat now, I remember him writing a lot about how 9/11 made him like Bush. I could be wrong though, and I might be confusing him with Larry Kudlow, his former show partner on "Kudlow and Cramer." Kudlow would defend Enron if it weren't political and ratings suicide.
