Doug forwarded this to me, a while back, I think.  Peter Schiff (now famously) “called it” when it comes to the real estate market / credit collapse.  From a 11/06 speech on Youtube:

That was then, now he’s a celebrity of sorts … and he had the temerity to appear on the DailyShow and castigate Prez. Obama for continuing to lead us into ruin.  He’s got a fun interview here (I can’t get the video to embed, dangit.)

Why do I find him so oddly compelling?  Am I that Scottish?
