I don't think any further explanation is required other than it's being manipulated in order to cover the ultra-massive short positions taken by banks and hedgefunds irrespective of reality and actually forced on them by the inertia they themselves created by years and years of habitual shorting on the Comex paper-silver market.
And it doesn't really matter either imo. They've won the game and the little guy has no choice other than to go along and accept it regardless of any reality.
McBUSHIE'S choice of Palin was irresponsible, dangerous and insulting to America's intelligence. That choice and his continuing smears/lies prove he'll do anything to win this election even to the point of endangering his own country.DEFEAT HIM!
