Clemens, Pettitte, McNamee asked to testify to Congress

[Showtime]

I just turned it on. What has happened so far?

 

[Fran]

Man, I'm gonna watch this thing all-day.

 

[danoyse]

Right now McNamee is being grilled about why he kept the gauze pads and needles for 5 years, if he feels so bad about turning him in to the Mitchell report.

 

[Figs]

Started watching this getting ready for work this morning.

Sad to say, Clemens is going down. He keeps digging himself a bigger ditch with everything he says.

He should have just told the truth because now he could easily face jail time.

 

[Fran]

Man, some of these reps are RIPPING into them! t:

Unless there is recorded evidence, or some sort of testing that proves he took HGH, I think he won't do jail time. Perjury is one of the hardest things to prove, that's at least what I've heard when they discuss the Bonds trial.

Good point! Wouldn't it entail them finding the drugs in his actual system?

Oh yeah, your AVY and Sig rock! Pork Chop Express FTW!!

I disagree completely.

Clemens is, for the most part, being helped by the bashing of McNamee.

Clemens is holding his owned - though some of the questions he is being asked are simply ridiculous.

Go Rocket Go!

I would assume. The evidence(needles, and gauze) that McNamme has only hurts Clemens public image IMO. It wasn't a certified test or anything, whose to say McNamme didn't mess with the syringes or vials. Im not watching it but I would bet as stated why he kept that stuff so long will be a hot topic.

Thanks, Jack Burton is the man. So many great lines in that film.

I don't know, Clemens started stuttering like a fool from some of these questions. He's obviously nervous as all hell, if he was innocent he would have no reason to be nervous.

As for McNamee, I find it funny that he is being yelled at as a liar. Why in the hell would he lie to tarnish his own name and career?? Only thing I could think of is he is getting paid off by someone.

For McNamee, however this turns out his career is already over. No one would trust him.

Weird exchange between Clemens and Representative Norton.

clemens is gonna fall hard

Well he admitted to lying to federal investigators in the past, that some of this statements are untrue. Why would you find it funny he is being called a liar? He is.

As far as Clemens looking nervous, I don't think it has much to do with him being guilty or innocent, just that he wants to make sure he knows exactly what they are asking.

 

[Ben Urich]

The guy asking the questions right now sounds like Darth Vader.

 

[cyborg ninja 14]

Congressman James Earl Jones!

 

[Ben Urich]

"The Chair recognizes Darth Vader."

 

[Jerry!]

The guy asking the questions right now sounds like Darth Vader.

The guy from Illinois right? That guy was an idiot.

"OK Mr. Clemens I'm going to ask you a hypothetical question about an investigation you had no idea about or knew the details of."

Clemens:

Why in the holy hell would he lie about something that gives himself a bad name and ruins his career. News flash, when people lie, it's to get them OUT of trouble. Unless your brainwashed or being paid off, no sane person lies about something that will make them get into trouble.



Clemens is doing some crazy back peddling now lol. He's trying to say that he did take B12 because he has dementia.

I thought he sounded like Stanley from The Office. I kept expecting him to take out a crossword puzzle.

 

[Dark Donnie]

The little bit I listened to, the one Congressmen ripped into McNamee pretty badly.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Why is that the Democrats are hitting Rocket hard, but the Republicans are hitting McNamee?

And right now, about the tape...McNamee is being pwned.

I don't know why, but that's what he did.

About the dementia, are you watching the same hearing as everyone else? Clemens never said or insinuated that at all. That was just another stupid question from am overwhelming smarmy representative. The next guy who talked kinda killed what he was trying to get at.

 

[danoyse]

Roger Clemens and George W. Bush are good friends. I would not be surprised at all if certain Republicans were going after McNamee instead of Clemens. Dan Burton's line of questioning in particular.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Or....

that the Democrats are going after Clemens because he is a Republican.

I think that'd be more possible since Bush has yet to learn mind control.

 

[Dark Donnie]

What did Petitte lie about?
