oh boy

Just when you think doping investigations can't get any weirder, this happens.

Marion Jones is asking President Bush to commute her 6 month prison sentence. The article makes it sound like convicted felons ask for presidential pardons all the time.

The good folks at USATF aren't going to stand for this, so they've drafted a letter to the president asking him not to commute Jones' sentence. They also offer a condensed version of the letter on their website which you can copy & customize before sending it off to the White House.

Since there are presidential politics involved, I'm sure this will be a hot button issue. I am merely the messenger. Do as you like with this information.
