		<description>Quaker, I should be seeing pigs because Roger is getting SLAMMED. He&#039;s being called a &#039;cheat&#039; by writers, bloggers are all over him, and there&#039;s already talk of Hall of Fame trouble.

Not sure why you would think the reaction would be different for Clemens than it would be for Bonds unless you&#039;re trying to find inject some kind of racial angle into the whole thing.

		<description>Quaker in a Basement: &quot;&lt;i&gt;Hunh.

You suppose all those folks who keep hollering that Barry Bonds is a big cheater will be equally outraged about Roger Rocket?&lt;/i&gt;&quot;

QiaB, can&#039;t begin to see what your point is?  Law should be enforced only if some critical mass percentage of the population heard of the offender?  Nah, that can&#039;t be it.

If it happens, get indoors quick. There&#039;s gonna be a great big ol&#039; flock of pigs passing overhead.

		<description>mlhm5: &quot;&lt;i&gt;The only action I would like to see come from this report is George Mitchell Bud Selig having the report inserted anally on ESPN.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;i&gt;WTF cares.&lt;/i&gt;

&lt;i&gt;The public sure does not.&lt;/i&gt;

So... if the police were to investigate the local crack house and find evidence of criminal activity, the proper response should be to shove the evidence up the investigating officer&#039;s ass?

Smacks of just not wanting to be bothered to enforce the law.

I would say that the tens of millions of people that watch baseball in this country constitute &#039;the public&#039; and do care.

Yes, let&#039;s just accept that Congress wastes it time on trivia.  I mean, why ever hope to improve anything?

		<description>&quot;Money to the left of them and money to the right.

Money everywhere they turn from morning to the night.

Only two things count at all from mountain to the sea.

Part of it&#039;s percentage, and the rest is guarantee.

Hello?

Knock, knock.

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Jay, what you can&#039;t explain is why it needed to come to a resolution in the first place.&lt;/i&gt;

Because it&#039;s something that Congress just &lt;i&gt;does&lt;/i&gt;.

I didn&#039;t see anybody getting worked up when the House passed resolutions this year &lt;a href=&quot;http://usinfo.state.gov/xarchives/display.html?p=washfile-english&amp;x=20071003165444mlenuhret0.9762384&amp;m=October&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;to recognize the Islamic holy month of Ramadan&lt;/a&gt;, nor &lt;a href=&quot;http://usinfo.state.gov/xarchives/display.html?p=texttrans-english&amp;y=2007&amp;m=October&amp;x=20071108142951abretnuh0.9962732&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the recognition of the festival of Diwali&lt;/a&gt; which is celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs and Jains, nor was there any compelling reason for the House to do so. They just did.

		<description>The fans have spoken, and by and large they don&#039;t care.  MLB attendence &amp; revenues are at all-time highs.  If the populace really did care about &#039;roid monsters, would the NFL still exist?!?

		<description>Jay, what you can&#039;t explain is why it needed to come to a resolution in the first place. Christmas is not &quot;under attack,&quot; and does not need some kind of official statement to be &quot;defended.&quot;

		<description>I can&#039;t wait to read all the cut and pasted letters from OUTRAGED constituents to their representatives regarding the hearings Congress is going to hold in the wake of the Mitchell Report.

Obviously, our government has more important things to do. But I doubt I will see them. The house passing a resolution honoring the Christmas holiday however? That will get some panties in a twist.
