House Government Reform Committee will hold a hearing on the use of steroids in major league baseball. On March 9 the committee issued subpoenas to current and former major league players and to baseball officials.

in the next blog (whenever it appears). I expect a lot of the hearings are going to be "steroids bad! We're shocked. Shocked! And we're going to sit here for as long as possible and not talk about Social Security or anything else that could get us into trouble."

Saying drugs are bad for our kids is kind of like saying you're for education: ever hear a politician say he's against it?
