    Now that is an interesting clip. Armstrong actually sounds fairly rattled as the cogs are grinding how to answer the question (which he actually does). But the best bit is when we pleads for leniency for the dopers' re-socialisation and says something like 'we all make mistakes'. ;) There's pretty interesting stuff going on between the lines during that whole answer. And he really, really doesn't like being asked questions about this.

    Paul Kimmage's comment that Armstrong is a cancer in the sport that has returned, however, is certainly tasteless and indefensible (gun + foot etc.), although I really don't think that Armstrong exploits it very well rhetorically. He could have made much more of it.
