Lance Armstrong gave 'weasel answers' in interview with Oprah Winfrey as confession fails to impress viewers Fahey said Armstrong's insistence he didn't dope after 2005 was incorrect and the Texan was seeking to avoid legal problems in the US by failing to acknowledge his true doping past. The evidence from USADA is that Armstrong's blood tests show variations in his blood that show with absolute certainty he was doping. Believe USADA or believe Armstrong? I know who to believe. The woman who first revealed Armstrong's drug admission before he underwent cancer surgery, Betsy Andreu, was also skeptical about Armstrong's confessions. The hospital is where it all started, he's going to infuriate people who know the truth. He's still protecting people who are close to him. Over at his Livestrong Foundation in Texas, where Armstrong apologised to staff earlier in the week, the response was one of carefully-worded disappointment and a distancing from their founder. "We at the Livestrong Foundation are disappointed by the news that Lance Armstrong misled people during and after his cycling career, including us," they said in a statement. Even in the wake of our disappointment, we also express our gratitude to Lance as a survivor for the drive, devotion and spirit he brought to serving cancer patients and the entire cancer community. Lance is no longer on the Foundation's board, but he is our founder and we will always be grateful to him for creating and helping to build a Foundation that has served millions struggling with cancer. In a soul-less appearance, Armstrong often deflected questions, especially ones that might implicate him in perjury charges. He refused to acknowledge Andreu's version of the hospital room incident where he admitted to an extraordinary mixture of drugs. Armstrong, instead, admitted to calling Andreu 'crazy', calling her a 'bitch', but insisted he never called her fat. Andreu retorted immediately after the show: "That exchange right there has me furious." The United States Anti Doping Agency, which detailed Armstrong's sophisticated drugs past in a near-1,000 page dissertation, said Armstrong had finally acknowledged that his cycling career was built on a powerful combination of doping and deceit. USADA said: "His admission that he doped throughout his career is a small step in the right direction. But if he is sincere in his desire to correct his past mistakes, he will testify under oath about the full extent of his doping activities. Meanwhile, sporting stars were similarly underwhelmed. Golfer Paul Azinger tweeted: "Lance Armstrong just called himself Lance. Why am I watching this? And US tennis player Andy Roddick noted: "Seriously????? Part 2??? Wtf??? Terrible and genius of Oprah all at the same time.
