The Bonds vs US fiasco

Let me preface this entry by saying that Barry Bonds is my favorite baseball player of all time.  i don't care if he juiced or was a boor to the media and fans.  One of the biggest disappointments was him not participating in the home run contest when the All Star game was held in The City.  But, he was just damn entertaining every time he came to the plate.  I've liked him ever since I was a kid and still have all his rookie cards tucked away someplace.  And, now the government has spent a ridiculous amount of money, manpower, and time trying to take him down while letting people like Madoff run wild and destroy an untold number of other people's lives.  Even if he is convicted of perjury, he probably won't do any jail time.  It just seems like the focus of our government should be elsewhere and Barry should be left alone - just like he seemingly wants to be.
