I was going to write up something on this Lance Armstrong thing…

…but Erick Erickson pretty much covered everything that I would have.  Starting with my essential disinterest in the sport itself; which means that I think that this is pretty much the first time that the  USADA/Lance Armstrong controversy has pinged my radar.  Frankly, the USADA is coming across as a collection of bureaucratic, taxpayer funded jackasses.

Oh, I’m sure that they have their defenders: and, at a guess, I’ll get at least one of them in comments.  Which is fine: just remember.  That a taxpayer-funded, apparently unaccountable organization seems to be so determined to put its worst foot forward is not my PR problem…
