Congress lies to us everyday. Why should we care if someone lies to them?
Excellent point.

This is precisely why Clemens walked. Most people believe he is a lying, cheating blowhard. But they also know that Congress is the biggest collection of hypocrites since the Scribes and the Pharisees. One of their own lies or cheats and, at best, you get a weak “censure” years later. But if someone outside the Capitol Hill dares to play their game, then Congress is “outraged” and looking for blood. When the likes of Barney Frank and Maxine Waters are running around free, it’s hard to justify jailing an athlete.
