The federal government is spending millions prosecuting a guy who did nothing worse than harm himself and cheat at a professional sport. This is an issue for MLB, not the courts. Suspend Bonds from the Hall of Fame, expunge his home run record from the books, whatever - but stop wasting tax dollars on this nonsense.

Bonds isn't on trial for using steroids (guilty), being a serial womanizer (guilty), or for being a jerk (GUILTY!). He is on trial for perjury, which was a big deal when Clinton did it and is a big deal now.
