    Go, Peter!

    This month, Chairman Bernanke will deliver a four-part lecture series on the Federal Reserve and the financial crisis.

    It is expected that most of the attendees will be students with sleeping disorders, looking forward for even a slight respite.

  3. R C Dean   14 years ago

    Mr. Schiff strikes me as an excellent candidate for Reason's board.

    That is all.

    1. Joshua Corning   14 years ago

      How about Cato's board?

  4. hoodie   14 years ago

    alt-text should be "Shifty Bernanke + friend"

    1. Trespassers W   14 years ago

      I don't get it.

  5. Zeb   14 years ago

    Schiff is great. But it always strikes me when I see a picture of him that he looks like a much less ugly version of Bill Maher.

  6. Joshua Corning   14 years ago

    renowned economist Peter Schiff

    I like him...but is he really renowned for? What has he done as an economist?

    1. Appalachian Australian   14 years ago

      Earned a billion dollars?

      That's gotta count for something.

      1. Loki   14 years ago

        Only to the top hat and monocle crowd. To everyone else, that makes him evil incarnate.

        1. Appalachian Australian   14 years ago

          Sort of like how Geitner is well-qualified to be Treasury chief because he can't figure out TurboTax?

    2. Zeb   14 years ago

      He did predict pretty much exactly what happened with the housing market. But I think he makes a lot of predictions like that.
