French Lab Gives False Blood Test Results

The French got caught again being incompetent dishonest fools. Is this news? The race of craven cowards that will lie, cheat, and steal----and then rewrite history [like that of World War II] to make themselves appear heroic will never admit that they are, as Arthur C. Clarke said in "Childhood's End," the world's greatest second-raters.

Read how they mucked up the Tour De France blood-doping tests they used to take away Landis's victory. Nugget quote:

... the lab referred questions to the French anti-doping agency. The agency's secretary general, Philippe Dautry, declined to comment on the report.

Landis' lawyer, Howard Jacobs, has already alleged that the French lab made repeated errors in its analyses, including mismatched sample code numbers.

In a letter sent to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency in September, Jacobs said the positive finding on the "B" sample came from a sample number not assigned to Landis.

"It's incredibly sloppy," Jacobs said at the time. "It has to make you wonder about the accuracy of the work."

On Sunday, Landis said in a French television interview that the lab made crucial errors in his tests.

"Even the best people make mistakes," he said. "I can't say that the lab is always a bad lab, but I can say that in this case it made some mistakes .?.?. I did not take testosterone."

Count on Le Monde, a factitious rag more fact-challenged than the NYT, to continue to wave the tricolor while the French disgrace themselves yet again.
