Just to get away from all the Casey Anthony stuff for a minute, can you think of a bigger waste of time and resources than this? (Link may not work if you’ve used up your free views of the NYT.)
A two year investigation and now a long drawn out legal affair, over what essentially amount to personal peccadillos?
I am no John Edwards fan by any stretch. But seriously, this is just nuts. The Feds have nothing better to do? They should start laying people off at the DOJ.
Actually, I know for a fact that they do have better things to do. But they’re not doing them. Same difference, as a lot of kids used to say when I was one.
So take this all in, sports fans. You think Casey Anthony caused a lot of wasted time and effort with her lies? I’ll certainly agree with that one. But it’s nothing compared to what the government can waste on a truly pointless criminal prosecution.
Including, perhaps, Casey Anthony’s.

The media has not spent a lot of time on “creating” news on this. Perhaps they get no one cares. Feds are single-minded in this pursuit.
