Let's see what right wing hot buttons we have here:

Of course there's the drugs...shame on these high-paid oafs for performing their jobs while under the influence of a controlled substance that they've abused...they might want to become a right wing, hate radio talk show icon.

Then there's the fact many of these players are black and/or hispanic...those damn minorities should be grateful we don't have them picking cotton and cleaning our pools. I'll bet that Sosa feller probably is an illegal Mexican while we're at it.

Baseball really isn't a manly sport like Football or Nascar racing and most the teams are in blue states...it was so enlightening seeing Repugnican hit-goons from Indiana and Alabama putting the screws to these druggies.

In a brief moment of seriousness, Congress does have the right to investigate thanks to baseball's "Exemption Rule" that gives them a monopoly (and the reason Selig dragged his sad ass into the hearings) and this subject should be investigated. The issue of drug abuse in sports has long been a sham and if this forces all these rich owners to pay REAL fines, not token ones when their players are caught, or a repeat offender is kicked out of the game and has to join the real world, I see nothing wrong with that.

Yes, the Corporate media coverage is inane and there are so many more important issues to cover, but dare I say, this was better than the Peterson-Jacko-Amber Smith crap that predominates most the propoganda these networks call "news".

Unfortunately it's getting worse, not better.
