You Need the Right Pitch; Who's More Scandelous---Roger Clemens or the U.S. Senate?

Nobody’s Opinion: It’s the bottom of the ninth. The score is tied---13 to 13---Team America is on the field and the bases are loaded…

Iran is on first. Ahmadinejad is grinning wildly, taking a wide lead off the base--- practically taunting the pitcher to watch for a steal. Just a few more steps and he will have the stuff he needs to get rid of that “Satan” nation, Israel, and then on to the great plans in place for the destruction of Team America forever.

Bernanke, the guy steering the American economy, is on second. The economy is so bad the government is sending us money to spend just so their stock options look good. He looks shaken---almost afraid to take his foot off the base because our schools are failing miserable, our cities decaying, and our universities a hotplate of leftist / communists. Our roads, water, and electrical grids go out at the least blast of wind. Bernanke eyes the Coach.

At third base is Mexico’s Vicente Fox; both hands on his knees, ready to burst into flight with an invasion of over one-hundred million Mexicans, who will cross home base and continue to flood up into the stands toward the people, stealing their hot dogs, sodas, and even their parking spaces with the crack of the bat.

All they need is one good solid hit to take over and win the game.

Forgive the terrible metaphor here, but I don’t think it’s half as bad as our “great” and “ethical” American Senate, who seemed to think investigating steroids in baseball is much more important than taking care of America’s many problems.

So, what are the great Senators doing while this dangerous situation is going on all around them?

Attacking a baseball pitcher, of all things, who they are making out to be worse than any dangerous Muslim terrorist, or Chinese spy…no, Roger Clemens is getting the full show of our Senate’s disgust.

Excuse me…I don’t remember the game of baseball being a big American threat, do you?

Oh…it’s the “doing for the kids” excuse again. That always works.

Gee---if they thought so much about our kids, why don’t they send the FBI to investigate our terrible education system, or the drugs dealers in the school halls, or gang violence on the streets, or…Sandy Burger's socks.

Most parents would say brain damage from marijuana, alcohol, Ritalin, or our current public school policies of indoctrinating socialism are a much greater threat then HGH.

To compete in the Major Leagues you have to be at the top one-percent of your field. Too bad the same criterion doesn’t apply for the office of Senate.

So, what’s a major-leaguer suppose to do? They either take HGH along with everyone else to compete, or don’t. It can mean the difference in paychecks.

And one must admit, Roger Clemens has delivered to his fans, HGH or not. Have our Senators?

It’s okay for politicians to do anything to win election, but not baseball players?

Baseball fans could solve this steroid question in a few seconds, without spending a dollar. After a certain year, (just pick one ) every player in the Baseball Hall of Fame gets an asterisk put next to his name, and get on with the game.

Besides, cleaning up the league is up to the players and the owners, not the Senate.

Frankly, I think our Senators have a lot of nerve.

If you want to see real damage to the American people, there is no better place to look than at the political scandals of many of our ‘fine’ Senators, past and present. Google ‘political scandals’ and the "crime"’ of HGH looks like a kid drinking an extra glass of milk, compared to the vast horrors against humanity committed by our high and mighty rulers.

So, why are they doing this idiotic thing? Well, why do so many of them leave office to go work for the big pharmaceutical companies?

Why did Bill Clinton, and President George Bush, give billions in Aids medicine to Africa, courtesy of us?

Who’s benefiting from all this “giveaway” stuff?

Here’s an educated guess; in his book “Natural Cures,” Kevin Trudeau says:

“The European Union set up a directive on dietary supplements. It is part of a larger forum of world-wide legislation in which the government of the U.S. will probably call CODEX. This will severely restrict access to natural health products. A small group will control every drug every vitamin, every mineral, every herb and every substance put on your skin.”

It’s all about the patents. HGH, like DHEA, melatonin, and vitamin C can’t be patented, therefore, there is a big greedy grab to outlaw them and put them into the hands of the major pharmaceuticals companies…and Congress will help them.

The Senators are typically covering all their own a…I mean bases, for their own future.

Making a big deal out of steroids in sports is a well-played smoke-screen keeping your eye on the wrong ball.

So, baseball fans---with all the problems we are facing right now, who would you rather have pitching this punked-up game?

Yeah, me too.

Roger---take the mound.
