People get paroled after murdering someone. If he's clean and he's "done his time" - let him compete.

British sprinter Dwain Chambers failed in his effort to gain a spot on his country's Olympic team in Beijing on Friday when England's High Court ruled a lifetime ban for doping means just that.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-britrun19-2008jul19,0,3118045.story"><DIV>
Chambers, 30, served a two-year doping ban after testing positive in 2003 for THG, the designer steroid distributed by the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative in Burlingame, Ca.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-britrun19-2008jul19,0,3118045.story"><DIV>
Under a British Olympic Assn. bylaw, Chambers was also permanently banned from the Olympics. His attorney argued that rule is unfair restraint of trade, but the High Court didn't support the challenge, and said the bylaw is consistent with Olympic ideals.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-britrun19-2008jul19,0,3118045.story"><DIV>
"Many people both inside and outside sport would see this bylaw as unlawful," Judge Colin Mackay was quoted on the Daily Telegraph website. "It would take a much better case than the claimant has presented to persuade me to overturn the status quo at this stage and compel his selection for the Games."</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/42E7346B-6285-4BAB-9B3A-572AB4861E5F/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
