TV News LIES

Let me start out by saying I am not a Roger Clemens fan. To me he seems like a mentally disturbed person. Ever since he threw the head of a broken bat at Mike Piazza who was running to first base at the time, I knew they guy was either on drugs or he was a mental case. He also represents one of the two things that ruined baseball for me...free agency (not-Clemens related), and steroids (and Clemens is part of that problem!)

That said, let me be the latest to point out that Congress had no business spending time worrying about baseball; not on our time and not on our dime. Let me put this in perspective...the world has ample evidence, or, how should I say this...PROOF, that the invasion of Iraq was started on false pretenses that were know to be false at the time they were made. To put this simply the Iraq invasion was the proverbial war based on lies. Folks...there is no higher crime a President can commit than committing his nation to war based on lies...and George W. Bush, as Dick Cheney's puppet, did this.

And what does Congress spend time doing while we have war criminals walking around free? They investigate baseball. Baseball...a game...where the worst crimes committed have more to do with ticket and hot dog prices than artificially inflated statistics and performance.

Baseball stopped being a game a long time ago. When Alex Rodriguez signed a quarter of a billion dollar contract to PLAY A GAME called base ball, PLAY A DAMN KID'S GAME...the final nail in the coffin for baseball was hammered in to place. We are firing teachers, nurses, laying off fire fighters and closing down their stations, yet a 1.7 $billion football stadium was just built for the NY Jets and Giants (football) and both the Mets and Yankees got new staduims over the past two seasons. What the hell people...America is just a social embarrassment when you put this in perspective.

Here is what Congress needs to do...other than kill themselves...it is run this nation the way the founders intended. While Clemens clearly lied to Congress he had no business testifying to them in the first place.

And while we are on the subject...I am still waiting to hear Bush and Cheney tesify about 9/11...it's high time a real issue of justice be addressed by the posers that run this nation.
