G'morning Jon, Are you familiar with the Ted Butler/GATA campaign to get Spitzer to investigate COMEX, CFTC, and the bullion banksters? Well, it's starting to get some ink.
9 Mar 2004 21:41 GMT NY Spitzer Returns Gift To Group Seeking Silver Market Probe
WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer returned a silver eagle coin to a group that asked him to investigate alleged silver market manipulation and included the coin with its probe request.
The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee, or GATA, on Tuesday released the text of a letter from Peter Drago, director of public information and correspondence for Spitzer's office, saying the request for the silver probe "has been forwarded to the appropriate members of our staff" and "I'm sure that it will be of interest to them."
In addition, Drago said in his letter to GATA Chairman Reg Murphy, Spitzer "also asked me to thank you for the silver eagle coin.
"While he greatly appreciates your thoughtfulness, the attorney general has established a very strict policy for himself and his entire staff which prohibits the acceptance of any gifts," Drago added. "Therefore, we are returning the coin to you," he stated.
GATA said that "Murphy's including a U.S. silver eagle with his letter seems to have gotten a little attention, even as the coin was returned to him."
