bush to pardon clemens??
So asserts a lawyer for Clemen's trainer Brian McNamee. The fake thugs and members of a criminal family (commonly known as republicans) ruffed McNamee up yesterday in congressional testimony because he dared assert a bush buddy (Clemens) took steroids, clemens denies the allegation.

http://www.sunherald.com/sports/story/372194.html

McNamee's lawyer Richard Emery said - "IT WOULD BE THE EASIEST THING IN THE WORLD FOR GEORGE BUSH, GIVEN THE CORRUPT PROCLIVITIES OF HIS ADMINISTRATION, TO SAY CLEMENS IS AN AMERICAN HERO, ROGER CLEMENS HELPED CHILDREN." Emery also said he thinks bush would pardon Clemens even before an indictment or conviction.

Hey billichick are you reading this? Just go kiss some bush ass just in case. I would think you and him would already be buddies since you are so much alike.

1. Yeah! He'll pardon Clemons, but will he pardon Barry Bonds?

NFW.

:grr:

BTW, Belichick has video taped evidence against someone, so he is in no danger of prosecution!

5. Well I'm glad to hear you at least insinuate that Barry
should be pardoned.

We're making progress with you madinmaryland.

Because as the fine progressive you are, you can't help but agree with my position that it's a waste of taxpayer money to go after someone who hasn't hurt anyone.

Even if he put steroids/HGH in his body, he hurt not one human being.

Right!!??

8. I wouldn't go that far, but he has hit more homers than any
other MLB player! :bounce:

Disregard the fricken asterisk that someone (most likely a Dodger fan) put on an otherwise great graphic!!

10. WTF?
By that logic, anyone who uses a controlled substance should not be prosecuted because he hurt no one but himself?
Flawed logic. Drug abuse is drug abuse. And trust me, Steroids and HGH are not the "harmless" substances that atheletes claim them to be. There is a GOOD reason why you can't go to the drug store and BUY this stuff.

12. Nice post, Big Yak!
We lost the drug war 90 years ago. Let's talk about treatment.

13. Yea, well if Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens want to
die from the side effects of whatever they've put in their bodies (if they have indeed done so), then that's their business.

Why are you worrying about what other people do to their bodies?

I never said the substances are harmless.

I said the substances are not affecting you. They're not keeping you from paying your bills or taking care of your family or sleeping at night, or anything else.

You're post reads like something a Republican would write.

2. Pardon him for what,
until he gets charged and convicted, he hasn't committed any crime. Hell, seems like lying to Congress is in vogue these days.

11. Winnah winnah
chicken dinnah. There is tremendous hatred in some quarters for all things Yankee, and all things Texan as well.
