Consumer confidence at new lows: Here are 6 things to be happy about

By Jim Cramer

Bio & Blog

Booyah America! Over this holiday weekend I heard about consumer confidence being at a 16-year low. 16-year low? You mean consumers have not been this unhappy since Leno took over for Carson? Why so sad America? Record gas and food prices, rising unemployment and falling home prices may have you down? Cramer is here to give you some things to be happy about"

1) A child's laughter.

2) With every day that passes Suze Orman is a day closer to death.

3) Porn is still free on the internet. (Although quality-wise, you get what you pay for.)

4) Iron Man; that movie is fantastic, fun for the whole family.

5) How the US Stock market just doesn't accept that the country is in recession and that it will be long and hard and that the Dow should probably be around 10,000 at best.

6) Fat people; you know you always feel better when you see some hugely fat person struggling to make it up a flight of stairs.

Ben Bernanke:

Thanks Jim, good to see everyone is doing their part to contribute to a strong economy. Thought you might want to mention my name as simply another reason for Americans to be optimistic.
