With everything the country is facing, WTH are we supposed to care if Roger lied? WTH was Congress sticking its effing nose in this to begin with?

It's the national pastime.

Yeah, Congress poking their nose where it doesn't belong does seem to be the new national pastime.

Steroids and baseball, how exciting, when 13 homers was a slow day not a season.

I understand what your getting at! But, Roger Clemens actually went to them. He was never called to congress to testify about his steroid use. He, himself, called them in to deposition him to clear the air. Just sayin! But, either way no reason to be involved with it.

It doesn't really bother me that he is being tried. After all, what he's accused of is a federal crime. What really burns me is that congress and the federal government were investigating this at all. A congressional hearing on performance enhancing drugs in MLB. Really? This country is going down by the bow. The band is on the fantail, playing Nearer My God To Thee, and the best these idiot can do is stand on the bridge and argue about the color of the deck chairs. The lack of public outcry about this kind of crap has convinced me that we have doomed ourselves to the fate of ancient Rome. We've reached the point as a nation where the masses only care about their bread and circuses.

The whole prosecution of him is a monumental waste of money. It's all about his testifying in front of a bunch of liars (politicians) who just wanted TV face time and lying himself. Why is Congress worried about Baseball when the nation has many more pressing issues?

How full would the court system be if everyone who lied in front a congressional committee where charged? They would have to build new prisons for all of the charged Politicians.

Again, just a huge waste of money.

Panem et circenses. Amen brother!
