Henry Waxman's closing of the Clemens hearing

[pgraybengal]

These jackass congress people Shays said baseball did spectacular job & never asked Clemens a though question & tore into McNamee the dumb woman with the Clemens posters thank god Waxman shut her up Burton from Indiana calling McNamee a lier yeah he had a fling in office got a woman pregnant then the worst the woman who told Clemens your going to heaven & somebody else asked him what jersey he would wear when going into the Hall of Fame but we know now he's not thank god Waxman & Cummings were

[theundertaker713]

fuck clemens

[roidpoleese]

REPUBLICANS issue a new report? OK, so you think that the

Waxman/Davis report that led the FBI to investigate Roger for lying was based on Democratic "prosecution" of Roger? Well, the REP's were given equal time as well but chose to tell Roger how great he is, that he will go to heaven, that he has a great workout routine, and "what uniform will he

wear in the hall of fame?"...GET IT NOW?

The protecting Clemens thing must stop by these Republican crooks. CLEMENS IS AN ASSHOLE!

Go to jail, punk.

[giomets15457521]

Clemens is an idiot

[4QFilms]

Where is the physical evidence or even a sign that anyone tried to collect it? Without physical evidence this is all he said, she said. And it's blatantly obvious that most of the panel members had made up their minds on Clemens' guilt or innocence. This hearing did little to nothing to advance the investigation. Get an unbiased jury with no political agenda to hear the case and move forward from there.

[BryantKobe824]

Roger Clemens is just as dirty and as much of a cheater as Barry Bonds & Jose Canseco and the rest of the PED users in MLB & other sports and should not be allowed in their respective halls of fame

[MITZMAN]

What I learned is that Petitte, Knoblach and McNamee have more credibility in their understanding of when to tell the Truth than Roger Clemens ever will.

Clemens has an ego the size of Texas, but his credibility is as small as a snail darter. It would have served Roger Clemens much better if he had not tried to fit into the superman outfit and had just owned up to what Petitte and Knoblach and others have faced up to.

Egos are a hard thing to shake. Sad..Very sad.

[AuroraKismet]

These hearings are a waste of time.Why don't they look into why opium production is up since US invaded Afghanistan?Why don't they look into how to stop the methamphetamine from flooding into this country from Mexico?Roger's steroid use more important than that?This is a waste of time.

Kill all the lawyers, kill them today.

[Jazzanswer]

They sure as hell can look into every nook and cranny about HGH - But when it comes to the fake rationale and push for the war in Iraq - ain't nobody home.

[absoluteblock]

I've come to 3 conclusions about this hearing.

I don't like Clemens.

I don't like McNamee.

I don't like Waxman.

[peajmac]

Funny 34Driver, what a saw in the interaction between Waxman and Clemens was a truly dumb as a box of rocks jock, hyped up on steriods who doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut. What a numbskull jack*** Clemens is. He should be used for anti-steriod ads for years to come claiming steriods make you as dumb as Roger Clemens. In fairness to steriod makers...Roger was likely this dumb before his use.

[34driver]

Oh, I don't dispute that Roger won't be figuring any trajectory angles for NASA anytime soon. It's just a good illustration of a pompous, overbearing, egomaniacal congressman trying to hold the rest of the world to ethics standards he can't hold himself to. That's why he's in politics, it's the largest home for criminals in the world next to the penal system.

[devilbush]

Why is a jock shooting up steroids AT ALL important? Does anyone really give a shit about this?

[Majenius]

What I've learned, confirms my conclusion concerning Congressional Hearings. They are ComiTragic "Reality Shows" based on a hypothetical Judge Wapner meets The Three Stooges, in which one is never quite sure who is the Judge and who the Stooges. My God, we elected thes people? Well, actually it wasn't me, I seem always to have voted for the losing candidate.

[34driver]

Watch Waxman's face when he bangs that gavel. You can just see the arrogance on his face. "HOW DARE YOU SPEAK WHEN CAESAR SPEAKS!" Arrogant piece of gutter trash professional politician.

[mm123]

How about that? Congress is making sure that Clemens has not lied about past steroid use. They are holding him up to standards that they don't hold up to themselves. We've got a war, an immigration problem that is out of control, and an economy that could crash at any time, and the government is focusing on steroids in baseball? And people wonder why this nation is going downhill so fast.

[34driver]

TELL IT BROTHER! Standards? Professional politicians talking about standards. We, the American people have taken the worst this country has to offer, pedophiles,drunks,thieves,murd­erers,rapists and other vermin AND WE HAVE SENT THEM TO WASHINGTON TO RULE US! We need more cops, teachers, plumbers, truck drivers and average joes in congress, and less scumbag professional politicians. 2008 will be no better.

[devilbush]

Please take your right wing trolling elsewhere.

[nbwulf]

Waxman injected HGH into his ears.

[vi1na2]

looks like it's so obvious now that the pro-Clemens can not talk a word :)

By the way, I am third party, not anti-Clement :)

[dumdumdu1]

way to go clemens, you blithering idiot, try to bully impose your will upon a congressional chair. you've made your bed and soon it will be time to lie in it.

[stok3d99]

that gavel-slam was priceless. throw the book at Clemems, take away his Cy Youngs, an him from the hall, and charge him with perjury. Farking LIAR.

[baronderothchild]

i'm ashamed that this is an issue for hearings...isn't there some sort of professional baseball organisation that could handle this internally? Maybe we should hold world talks to discuss this earthshaking problem? if baseball players take steriods the terrorist win! HGH hates freedom!

also, i would take the word of a doctor over a high priced manchild any day.

[jonahansen]

I agree. Why is this an issue for congress? It is a baseball issue.

[vi1na2]

Baseball can not solve its own issue, dude. And it seems this one was froced by Clemens himself to show people that is is...guilty hahaha

[vi1na2]

Since the Congress can not trust anybody in baseball, I guess lol

[funkyflights]

@baronderothchild

I know this is and old post but I just wanted to say I think it's the legal issue and the massive problem of steroids in sports that made congress address it.... They really cracked down on MLB and it shows in the amount of big time home-run hitters now.... WAY less homer runs in baseball.... I think it was a serious out of control problem... BUT I hear what your saying....

[bellinghamster]

Not a great idea expressing 'roid rage at the committee chairman, Roger!

[overmind25]

What a waste of news time. What about the torture hearings in the Senate? Why is the US media coving this unimportant even in the House?

[overmind25]

*event

[vi1na2]

because the media knows that it attracts many people. That's the rule, dude. Do not be pro-Clement :)
