BYE BYE BALCO, WE KNEW YOU TOO WELL


I couldn't write this script any better myself to demonstrate what I've been saying about this steroid mess all along.

FROM THE AP REGARDING RADOMSKY CASE:

Federal prosecutors said yesterday they did not give baseball steroids investigator George Mitchell a complete copy of an affidavit containing names of players who allegedly received performance-enhancing drugs from a former New York Mets clubhouse employee.

Prosecutors urged a judge to keep under seal the names of the players identified in a sworn statement signed by IRS special agent Jeff Novitzky.

The U.S. Attorney's Office in San Francisco said a motion by Hearst Corp. seeking unredacted copies of the search warrant affidavit is a "thinly veiled attempt to benefit financially" by publicizing the names of people involved in the government's steroid probe and does not serve a public need.

Now, one wonders why the same argument was not made loudly and vociferously by all the haters. Why wasn't the public portrayal of the "Game of Shadows" put in the same light?

PUBLICIZING THE NAMES DOES NOT SERVE A PUBLIC NEED!!!

THIS FROM THE SAME OFFICE THAT DOESN'T BAT AN EYELASH WHEN THE NAMES AND TESTIMONY OF BONDS AND SHEFFIELD IS USED TO PUBLICLY SMEAR AND PROFESSIONALLY HARM THEM?


Disgraceful, disgusting conduct and once again your tax dollars at work. As I always say, if there is ever again another true revolution in this country, guys like these "public servants" will be hanging upside down in the public square like human pinatas. And I'll be happy to bring my Louisville Slugger. Unfortunately, all we can do is vote the scumbags out of office, but it doesn't hurt to think of the possibilities.

That's OK, it's becoming apparent to everybody with a brain what's going on and what's gone on in the past.

FROM THE BALCO CASE:
Lead Investigator IRS Agent Novitsky: Charges of misconduct and abuse of office in this case. It became obvious what was going on when he asked Grimsley to wear a mike and gather evidence against Bonds in exchange for leniency. Has been accused by former partners of having a personal vendetta against Bonds. Not widely reported for obvious reasons.

The Lead Attorney in the case fired for incompetence and replaced by the President.
It's pretty bad when the most incompetent President of my lifetime fires you for incompetence. THAT'S GOT TO HURT.

And on a side note, how can the Bush Adminstration's Justice Department continue to pursue perjury charges in a high-profile case like this after erasing perjury charges against one of their own in Scooter Libby? Seems a little hypocritical. It would seem to be at odds with their own Attorney''s quotes in this case about the public interest being served. What then is the continued public interest that is being served in continuing to investigate Bonds for perjury?

Potential Star Witness in the case Greg Anderson gives them nothing in the case, and if he says anything of value now, how hard would it be for a defense attorney to tear up his testimony due to duress caused by his incarceration? Guys have given up mob figures with less screw-turning from the feds.

Potential Star Witness, mistress Kimberly Bell. Aside from the potential sour-grapes angle of an ex-lover scorned, there's the hurdle of possible extortion that would make her value as a witness next to nil. Combine this with the book deals and the pending Playboy layout and this ex-stripper has defined what she is, we're just not sure of the price.

After almost five years, and this is the huge pile of evidence that is not only the basis for the case against Bonds for perjury, but also the basis of the book, "Game of Shadows" that all the haters cite as indisputable proof.

I just have one simple question. If it's that indisputable, how come we haven't seen that indictment we've heard should be coming down the pike "any day" now for fricking years on end? Not even an indictment. And remember how easy it is to bring down an indictment. The Keystone Cops can't even do that.

My guess is this latest grand jury will not be able to bring down anything of substance and even the pending tax evasion charges will go away leaving only the vapor trail of innuendo and supposition. That's where the haters want it, in the court of public opinion, but the assholes had the full weight of the US Government behind the and have, to date come up with more swings and misses than Dave Kingman.

The Radomski case names are likely filled with some popular names from the New York market. Good Luck getting them released. Guys from outside the New York area have their own clubhouse boys why would they trust the NY clubbie more than their own?

The Grimsley case, they won't pursue much further because of the names that have already been linked to it.

All this time and all these tax dollars expended and these guys have come up with a big bag of nothing. GOOD JOB FOLKS.
