He takes the fifth.
That's not what he said. He declined to talk about the past. Maybe you interpret that they way you want, but he did not plead the fifth.

Good. They all should. Do an "I am Spartacus" moment on the grandstanders.
Congress didn't do jack until MLB had already acted. Waxman got busy when Canseco claimed that Bush had to have known about steroid use in baseball. Waxman wants to tar Bush with this, you watch.
Meanwhile, owners got staduims built, vendors and advertisers made tons of money, as did players who may not have been on steroids but reeped the benefits of increased revenues. Am I supposed to believe that the solution is to retroactively go after a few players who may have taken advantage of the situation at the time?
This is a sham.
