rec.bicycles.racing.politics? I know you are familiar with the
precedent for that. Anyone who is interested can follow or
participate there. (Unless of course, you are just an exhibitionist
demanding attention from others who mostly find your posts annoying.)
That way this group can actually be focused on the racing which is
taking place in the meantime, and which (believe it or not) will
continue with or without Lance.
If I just wanted the latest online news on one particular subject, I
would would set up one or more Google news alerts using appropriate
keywords such as "Lance Armstrong doping investigation"

He's doing it for free here. On TV, I guess they get paid to comment on
Larry King, and King's show would be edited. They would not allows any or
all comments, info, etc. that Laff provides. Rbr has been a forum massively
skewed by doping threads for years now, not bike racing. I don't mind Laff
providing the feed here since it is after all a doping newsgroup. I find it
more interesting content then all the massive amount of Liz Hatch threads
and other nonsense. His stuff is pretty much straight talk, links, facts,
etc. For those who want to follow the course of the investigation, Laff's
providing and highlighting that.

one in their right mind could ever put a Liz Hatch post in rbr ever
again.
She is the antithesis of 'bike racing'

Is there some reason it can't be done in a group focused specifically
on such things?
It seems that would be best for all concerned and not waste anyone's
time or bandwidth in either group.

I thought rbr was focused on doping threads?
See this thing has been going on for almost a decade now in rbr with Laff.
Back then nobody thought Laff had anything, but now people seem to sense
Laff is onto something. I can tell you for a fact, if he left, people would
asking where's Laff when some new dirt surfaced. Laff's on the cutting edge
with it, it's his thing, plus he's doing all the footwork, so you don't have
to. You don't have to click on his threads if you don't want to. I don't
have time to read all that stuff either, but when I do have time to read up
on it, I know Laff's got it all laid out for us.

He was graciously silent for a LONG time while he dealt with his other
little conflict. It was great.
We know his position. We have known it for years. Lance is a doper and
the whole world sucks. Maybe he's right. Maybe he's not. I really
don't care.
As I said, if I wanted news I would have it delivered directly via a
Google alert. It would be wonderful if he didn't start a new thread
every time a new item appeared. The story remains the same and could
be readily handled in a SINGLE thread. But BL is intent on making
everyone think he is somehow on the inside track in knowing something.
It simply isn't so.
As much as I would like to, I have not suggested that that BL cease
posting. I have merely suggested that he and his disciples get a
private "room" where anyone who is interested can follow along. The
are already numerous bicycle groups which have been created as a
result of having a specific bike-related focus. A
rec.bicycles.racing.politics group would be perfect for BL's
preoccupation. Seriously.

Dumbass -
No it isn't.
His analysis is as biased as it gets.
You're fucking stupid for thinking otherwise.

That's half true. There have always been 2 different arguments going on
around Laff:
1. Is Lance a doper?
2. Is Lafferty an asshole?
These are not the same argument, but I think they have the same answer.
