Congressional Hearings - Steroids

bonzo4congress1.jpgIt is time for Congress members in Washington DC to start behaving like members of Congress, instead of like star struck teen age girls at a boy band concert. This entire issue is repugnant. We are a country at war, we face major economic problems, immigration laws are not being enforced, health care costs are out of control, as is the price of fuel. Despite the significant domestic problems, lawmakers are spending time fawning over a baseball player.

Nothing was resolved. Baseball should handle its own disciplinary problems. Roger Clemens is behaving like a spoiled 13 year old. As a child when I lied to my parents I got my butt paddled with the wooden spoon and then I was grounded. It worked. Baseball should deliver its equivalent of a spanking and suspension.

Congress should have minded its own business, as it has plenty to attend to, and let Bud Selig discipline his own children. I resent that Bud Selig dumped his garbage on our door step. Tax payers are now ponying up to clean his mess.

I must admit that I did get a little thrill seeing Henry Waxman appointed to a job he can actually handle. If you recall, he was one of the 3 stooges that led the Democrat fight song about how they were going to balance the budget, end the war, and impeach Bush. His companions Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have disappeared quietly into the night.

I defer to my earlier post about the OWL Party. “Out With Lunacy - In With Logic”
