Of course, both Clinton and Armstrong were defended by scumbag attorney Mark Fabiani.
Lance Armstrong is a good example of why no one should ascribe hero status to a sports figure.
Excellent piece.
We now hear Lance wants to start to improve his image by becoming a snitch.
Hola, Amigo!
Power, Money, Influence/Prestige, Celebrity...
There isn’t much difference these days between politicians, Hollywood types and sport hereos...
Lie, cheat, steal, and kill...and yet the unwashed masses worship them and constantly reward their bad behaviour.
As always, stay safe!

The lie is the weapon used most often by the criminal.
Add Stephen Glass to this list.
Armstrong is a militant atheist who blamed God for his cancer and didn’t give Him credit when he was cured.
As far as I know Pete Rose never bet against his own team , and never threw a game.
Can anybody prove he did?
I noticed that Rose now has a reality show called something like “Hits and Mrs.” —looks pathetic like most of these shows which bring you right inside the house.
He doesn't seriously believe this is going to work, does he? This isn't the average US Low Information Voter he's dealing with here.
Great post - thanks.
Yes, it wasn't just that he lied, he used money and power to punish anyone who would expose his lie.
The way he treated his wife told me all I needed to know about this POS. The unfolding of present events just confirms it.
The Clintons and Obama seem to be getting away with a whole bunch more and everything seems to be rolling off their backs as if they are totally innocent.
If payback is a bitch, then the Clintons and Obama and all the rest of their ilk will experience a tsunami with God at the helm.
Lance is really lucky that it is all falling on him now rather than later.
” It is merely another weapon, along with lies, manipulation, deceit and posturing, in the arsenal of one of the lifetime predators whose sole goal in life is to prevail and profit over the rest of the trusting suckers who share the Earth with them, and who will do anything, even to the extent of briefly embracing ethical principles, to get what they want.”
What a soaring, beautiful sentence. I should paint it on my wall. The sociopathic, aka evil, person will use ANY thing, including telling the truth, public prayer, charity, all sorts of things good in and of themselves. . . to further their ends.
