The Bush administration has waged a war on Black Folks during election years (see my journal for details) as part of a revived Southern Strategy ever since Katrina lost them the Black vote forever and ever. Pat Buchanan spilled the beans on Countdown with KO.
The perjury trap is get somebody before a leaky grand jury and force them to talk about something that, if revealed in the public, would be damaging. In Clinton's case it was adultery. In Bond's case it was steroids. Assume that fear of having damaging info leaked to the public will outweigh all other considerations. Once the testimony is given, leak the info. In Bonds case, there was a criminal leak from the grand jury to two newspaper reporters who wrote a book, in which they accused Bonds of lying. The federal prosecutors, whose leaky grand jury enabled the reporters to write their book, were then able to use the media attention to claim a groundswell of support for a perjury investigation. However, the real purpose for the grand jury leak was to set the stage for a perjury investigation, which they had insufficient evidence to pursue, but could start if they could get the news media on the case.
The two reporters allowed themselves to be used as so many reporters allowed themselves to be used in the Monicagate case by Ken Starr's criminally leaky grand jury, because they wanted the fame and money that went from writing the book.
The federal prosecutors wanted to indict a high profile Black Man, because every time a Black Man was proved to have gotten ahead by cheating or was convicted of a sex crime against a white woman this angered the White racist Republican base and made them more likely to turn out to vote.
I can not understand why no one has noticed the parallel between Susan McDougall's incarceration and the jailing of Bond's friend to try to force evidence out them. Or the same rhetoric "It isn't the sex, it's the perjury. "It isn't the steroids, it's the perjury."
Charges have been filed now, because Karl Rove and Co. want their base to see a wealthy, powerful Black man being brought down in the run up to the 2008 election. The implication will be that if the Barry Bond's had not used steroids, then baseball would have remained pure. Obviously, Bonds must have been some kind of ring leader, some steroid mafioso don, otherwise federal prosecutors would not be targeting. Just as the feds must have targeted Michael Vicks for dog fighting because he was the head honcho of dog fighting for the whole US--never mind that dog fighting was a White sport before it ever crossed the color lines. And OJ Simpson is the only rich guy to ever get away with murder (whatever you do, do not look up Cullen Davis. The MSM does not want to talk about him.) Adnd Wesley Snipes is the only celebrity not to have paid his taxes.
The big question is how come no one has asked Nolan Ryan of George W. Bush's Texas Rangers how he was able to pitch so long? Is it because of who he is and whom he worked for? When your legal system has two standards based upon who the parties are, then it is not a legal system, it is a criminal racket in itself. Just like in
Bush v. Gore .
But I know that the sports news commentators are going to be thirsting for Barry Bonds' blood, because they have to nail someone to a cross, if baseball is going to atone for its sins, and in the United States, it is always a Black man who pays in the end.
