What a Waste of Time - and either B12, Lidocaine, HGH, or Steroids

What a debacle today was - 5 hours in front of Congress, and all we continue to know is that McNamee is a sleazeball and Clemens is a hell of a witness - a hell of a witness who probably took HGH and/or steroids.

I'm not sure what Congress feels they accomplished at this point. The Rep. Burton on McNamee, and Rep. Cummings on Clemens, were the two that really went for the jugular, and neither "witness" broke.

It was almost as if they were trying to replay the scene from A Few Good Man, hoping that their chosen target would just scream out that they were lying.

Out of the two, Clemens certainly appeared to be a far more credible witness, as McNamee tripped up all over himself throughout the day, and seemed to shrink into the table as the day passed. Clemens, though, certainly didn't get through this thing clean. The nanny, whether Andy P. is or is not credible, and Cummings direct verbal assault made sure Clemens left the day scathed in one fashion or another.

It was fascinating in the Real World/Road Rules-who-made-out-with-who kind of way, but nothing above pure shock value. It's impossible to figure out what actually happened, and it's impossible to figure out who I believe more (note: I will never say "who I believe"). Just like reality TV - I feel like I need to take a shower now, but I sure as hell will watch or read whatever comes down the pike next.
