I love this Ted Butler piece: (don't bring a knife to a gun-fight)

Silver analyst Ted Butler had another commentary for his clients over the weekend... and I'll steal a paragraph from it.

"While I understand Commissioner Chilton's reluctance to be openly adversarial to the CME over the issue of [silver] position limits, the CFTC's attempts to work co-operatively with the CME have yielded nothing to date. The CME has been working overtime to undermine position limits. That must be stopped. My advice to Chilton is not to bring a knife to a gunfight. It is time to lower the hammer on these SOB's. And this continuing worry... that trading will migrate to other exchanges if legitimate silver position limits are established... is pure nonsense. Let the short silver crooks go wherever they want to go; no one will follow them. Legitimate traders want to operate on legitimate exchanges and in legitimate markets. The only thing the regulators must do is to insure that the crooks dealing on foreign markets can't link their crooked trades back to our markets. If JPMorgan wants to hold crooked silver OTC positions with the Chinese or anyone else, let them. Just don't let them transfer or link anything back to the Comex."
