What a Joke!
Yesterday, Representative Elijah Cummings (D-MD) grilled Roger Clemens about whether the former pitcher used steroids. At one point, Cummings told Clemens, “It’s hard to believe you. You’re one of my heroes. But it’s hard to believe you.”
To quote Scooby Doo, “Huh?!??”
Is anyone else troubled by this? No, no, not about Cummings accusing Roger of being a perjurer! Obviously if the Clemens scandal were a porno plot inspired by Pinocchio, Clemens’ cock would grow just about every time he opened his mouth. (And other mouths would undoubtedly open to as a result of his growth.) What is troubling (to me at least) is that a 57-year-old man–and not just a regular Joe, but a frickin United States Congressman–would describe a former thug baseball player as one of his “heroes.”
Clemens might have been a great pitcher, but a Jackie Robinson-type, he ain’t! And that’s exactly why, in the spirit of Ricky Ricardo, “Elijah, you got some ‘splaining to do!”
