Whatever your opinion might be over the use of performance enhancing drugs, and what ever you believe about Roger Clemens’ honesty, I find the current witch hunt very scary. Ask any lobbyist who snuggles up with your representative and they’ll tell you….”baseball been bely bely good to me.”
Roger Clemens faced a judge today
On trial for his word
The Congress thinks he lied to them
During the testimony that they heard
In a case of he said she said
And circumstantial evidence
The prosecution is convinced
They’ll knock the ball over the fence
But even if he’s lying
And the accusations turn out true
How many times do you suppose
Your Congress lied to you
Perhaps a little Quid Pro Quo
Is the order of the day
The thirty years they propose for him
Ought to go the other way
435 inmates wearing stripes
For lying to the masses
The perfect steroidal ointment
To cure our festering congressional asses

Just when the $8b goes missing in Iraq, we get the steroid scandal! Just another mis-direction ploy and waste of time. Why doesn't Congress do something important for a change. Political theatre, all of it. Throw the bastards out!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good job.
Yeah, and I think many of those inmates have overstayed their time and should be released starting this very next November.
Enjoying the cooler weather, I bet'ch'ya.

How many times do you suppose
Your Congress lied to you?
As one who had to endure sitting in many Congressional hearings, I couldn't even count that high. They should change the name of D.C. to D.D., District of Deceit.
