What will be the next Pointless Waste of Time after the Steroid Hearings?
Seriously, today was probably the biggest misuse of public funds since the $70 million spent on a blow job investigation.

The common thread in both? Republicans of course.


I wonder what bullshit, non issue, the GOP will take on next.

2. I'm sitting here watching the replay on CSPAN -
What total BS. Here are a bunch of congressional nobodys who few people have ever heard of thumping their chests, trying to leach all the publicity they can off of these guys.

3. Gay marriage. Who cares about the missing 9 BILLION in Iraq or
Halluiburton siphoning off hundreds of millions war profiteering. Who cares about every reason we went to war in Iraq was a LIE. Who cares that the main intel for the Iraq war came from an iranian spy. who cares that a GOP male prostitute got within 10 feet of the President for two years without the knowledge of the whitehouse (lies)
WHO CARES!!!

6. Most of the scandals that have been in the pike are now nearing
their ends--save for Jackson and steroids. Nothing on the horizon. Maybe the next scandal will actually be the disclosure of the truth about BushCo . . .


......



Nahhhhhh.

7. Honestly, I'd rather they spend money on $500 hammers and toilet seats

than waste money and more importantly TIME on this crap.

You don't want little Johnnie taking roids? Then be a responsible parent and stop letting him blindly worship lunkheaded sports figures. When he doesn't make the football team because he's too small, encourage him to play something else where his size won't be an issue forchrissakes! The parental outrage over this is so manufactured.

Meanwhile back at the ranch, WE suffer 'cause nobody is paying attention to what's really going on on Capitol Hill.

:nuke:
