This is driving me nuts. Are you guys aware of what’s going on with this whole Roger Clemens being on trial with our United States Congress right now?

Here’s the low down:

Roger Clemens, like Barry Bonds, was/is one of American Baseball’s most highly regarded record keepers and arguably one of the best ballplayers in history - certainly of their generation. There has been a lot of speculation going on in regards to whether or not these players have used steroids in the past to pad their stats and give them an extra boost in their abilities. Basically, cheating.

OUR COUNTRY IS IN A WAR, PEOPLE! Our dollar is at a record low. Foreclosures are at a record high. Barrels of gasoline have reached $100 for the first time in history. Our country is on the verge of another damn depression and our congress can’t find anything better to do than try to figure out if a popular BASEBALL PLAYER cheated. Are you serious? I’m a very big baseball fan and I find this appalling. I personally think steroids were good for sports and even the economy in general (it’s a long story, but pretty much “who would want to watch a bunch of skinny guys slap singles and steal bases?”…and the fact that people were spending millions and millions of dollars to spectate this sport when all the juiced up people were homering their way into record books.) Maybe I’ll write another long blog about it one day, but I’m tired right now and I just wanted to vent for a little bit.

For the record, I just took a little break in writing this and put some serious thought into the topic at hand. The only reasonable answer I could come up with to this stupid baseball anomaly is that perhaps it’s just a break from what’s really going on. Something other than our failing country to put on the front pages of our newspapers and keep us happy and uninformed. This baseball controversy seems as good as an excuse as any, so what the hell?

Also

Barack Obama is the man. He killed in Iowa yesterday. I would be the happiest little American if he won.

I’m not voting Republican strictly out of principle, but I think that Mike Huckabee is a really cool dude as well. While out hunting recently, he shot and killed three pheasants while one got away. He told reporters after that the three he got were planning on voting for Hillary. The other? Well, the other was wearing a Mike Huckabee pin.

What a badass. I’m going to start calling him Mike “I will kill the opposition” Huckabee.
