T.I.M.E. de apoyo en voz alta

Señor Lance Armstrong, le creo a usted; y también creo que los burócratas que le acusan lograrán el lugar que se merecen en la historia: no los recordará nadie, esto es, ¡NEP!

Señor Lance Armstrong, el camino que escoge de mantenerse en silencio ante la cobarde persecución, en la misma medida que le dignifica, demuestra la iniquidad de los enanos.

Por eso aquí lo decimos en voz alta: para ayudar a que usted se sostenga en el silencio.

Aquí, quien esté dispuesto a ir más allá de la "bulla" de los medios, puede revisar una opinión de verdad informadora sobre la historieta-USADA

Extracto introductorio:

"By Tim Dockery, Thu, June 21, 2012

Imagine walking into a courtroom as the defendant in a lawsuit. The prosecuting attorney reads the charges against you citing nothing more than the testimony of anonymous witnesses as evidence. You object, claiming this is unjust! To your surprise the prosecutor walks to the judge’s bench, puts on a judge’s robe and denies your motion. The prosecutor, still wearing his judge’s robe, then takes out his cell phone and calls three of his friends to serve on your “independent” jury.

This fictitious, but obviously unjust situation is incredibly similar to the case Lance Armstrong currently faces from the United States Anti-doping Agency and its CEO Travis T. Tygart."

Extracto clave 1:

"A similar investigation led by the United States Department of Justice concluded in February, 2012. After almost two years of investigation, and millions of US tax dollars spent researching Armstrong’s past, the USDOJ decided there wasn’t enough evidence to continue the investigation. So is this just another branch of the Federal government wasting millions of more tax dollars on the same investigation?

No, despite the officially sounding name, it turns out the “United States Anti-doping Agency is not a part of the federal government. Although it receives almost 70 percent of its funding from the federal grants, the USADA is a government program masquerading as a non-profit organization. This non-profit status allows it to investigate and prosecute athletes without affording them the constitutional and due process protections required of other federal agencies. This status also allows it to prosecute athletes with a lower burden of proof than the “beyond a reasonable doubt” standard that would have been required in the previous investigation by the USDOJ. Finally, it allows a situation where the same man, Mr. Travis T. Tygart is allowed to serve as Prosecutor, Jury and Judge in the investigation of Lance Armstrong."
