Baseball and The Republican Party

Prior to today I had never stopped to think about the involvement of partisan politics in the steroids scandal rocking baseball. That was naive I suppose. The associated press issued an article today saying the lawyer for McNamee, Clemens' former trainer, predicts Bush will pardon Clemens if he is criminally charged, because "some Republicans treated his client harshly because of the pitcher’s friendship with the Bush family." According to the AP article, "Many Democrats were skeptical of Clemens’ denials he used performance-enhancing drugs and Republicans questioned the character of McNamee." There is something seriously wrong with this party. Clemens clearly used steroids. Just look at the guy now versus his rookie year. But noooo, we gotta circle the wagons cause he probably went on a bike ride with this limp dick, ignorant rube of a president. Justice and reason be damned.
