Contempt of court.

Should we complain about Valerie Plame, you putz?:

"Don't forget that the most important informant in American history -- W. Mark Felt, aka Deep Throat -- took down a president in part because he didn't receive the promotion he wanted. Nobody complained then, because the information he leaked was legitimate.

For the same reasons, nobody should complain now."

Deep Throat was violating a court order? I was unaware of that.


MLB players clearly use steroids and have cheated for decades. A relatively small segment of the population is wringing their hands because their preferred form of entertainment has been tainted or because they want to protect Aaron's HR record or because children have lost another role model.

It's worse when lawyers cheat. That affects all of us. Nice lesson for the kids.

Bonds, Clemens, ARod, McGwire are all unpunished in the real courts.

Unable to get the desired results, the lawyers respond by cheating, by trying their case anonymously in the Court of Public Opinion.

Somehow, when weighed about the Constitution of the United States, Aaron's precious HR record seems a bit unimportant.
