Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money Lightning Round" Tuesday evening:

GameStop (GME - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Monster stock! ... I take a lot of criticism every time it falls. What do I say? Back the truck* up. ... GameStop is going higher!"

Disney (DIS - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Unbelievable what a bad performer that one has been. ... I like the fact that Disney's model is better than what people realize. ... That stock will be at $37, $38 and everyone will say, 'That was easy.' "

US Bancorp (USB - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "If Warren Buffett didn't own this stock, I would say SellSellSell. ... Because he's in it, I say Don'tBuy."

Caterpillar (CAT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I own Caterpillar. ... I am taking a five-year perspective, not a five-day perspective. ...When the economy bounces back, it will double. ... If you can't take the pain, you should SellSellSell, but I am digging in my heels."

Ciber (CBR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I was gonna tell you it's a bowwow because it's been down a lot. We have to do a real analysis. ... It may not be positive, but it will be as best as we can do."

Amgen (AMGN - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Amgen is down so long, it seems up to me. ... I have a hard time recommending Celgene (CELG - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), which is up. ... The only so-so biotech is BioMarin (BMRN - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr). ... Don'tBuy."

Deere (DE - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "This is a classic bull-market game. This stock pulls back 10% ... pull the trigger. ... My favorite name in the group is Agrium (AGU - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)."

E*Trade (ETFC - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "It's not done going down."

DryShips (DRYS - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Remember when we had the Diana (DSX - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) CEO on, we got cold feet. ... I don't trust that group. ... There was too much momentum money."

Asta Funding (ASFI - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Accounting irregularities means SellSellSell. ... The fact is: no financials, no buy."

United Natural Foods (UNFI - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "No, no, no! If we want natural food, we're going with best in breed. ... We're going with Hain (HAIN - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), which has seen insider buying. ... Hain is your pick."

Mechel (MTL - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "These Russian companies are too dicey for me. ... This is a good one. I like Rio (CVRD (RIO - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and Freeport (FCX - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) more, what can I say?"

Petroleo Brasiliero (PBR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I like Brazil very much. ... If you got to own one stock ... it will be Petroleo."

*For all you home-gamers, a 'mon-back opportunity means Cramer would back up the figurative truck and load up on a stock.
