And to support your "insinuation,", if I may call it that. Why is it taking the DOJ forever to decide to join Floyd's whistle blower lawsuit against LA? I would think after USADA's reasoned decision, the DOJ can well see that Landis' lawsuit has some merit. I can see them making a political decision not to go after LA criminally, but darn it, they should try and win some money for the taxpayers from Lance.
