Update

Lance Armstrong has been stripped of his 2000 Olympic Games cycling time trial bronze medal by the International Olympic Committee, continuing his spectacular fall from grace.'We have written asking for the return of the medal from the Sydney 2000 Games,' an IOC official told Reuters on Thursday after the decision to take away the last major title won by the disgraced American.
The move was confirmed to the AP on the same day that Armstrong's admission of using performance-enhancing drugs – after years of denials – is to be broadcast in an interview with Oprah Winfrey.
This confirms what I said below.

Over 20 years of lies. I see no upside for Armstrong coming clean after all this time. I don't know what Oprah paid him but it wasn't enough.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not defending him. The only thing he had left was the uncertainty he skillfully placed in some people's minds. Those people who never believed had their suspicions confirmed. Those who did now see him for the liar he is. Up until about a year ago I believed him myself. The sad reality for Lance Armstrong is he probably would have won 7 Tour de France titles without doping up.

Maybe Oprah could get Barry on.. they could talk about.... Solyndra, Fast and Furious, Benghazi. The WH leaks...etc...
Don't bet on it.
