This whole prosecution is bogus. I'm no fan of Martha stewart but since when in America do we prosecute folks for "lying" to the FBI during the course of an investigation of a crime for which we're never charged?

Our whole rule of law assumes that people will tell the truth when questioned by the government. I would support 5 years minimum for ANYONE who lies to a government official regardless if they part of an investigation. Lying costs the taxpayers more money by prolonging an investigation. I hate liars and anyone who accepts lying as a legitimate way of doing business.

That is exactly what Martha said during a interview before the incident. She did not heed her own advise.
