Congress continues to waste time on their HGH and Steroid “Witch Hunt”

February 22nd, 2008 by Admin

I happen to catch a bit of the congressional hearings last week on HGH. The congress is thinking of trying to make HGH a schedule 3 so they can criminalize people for it’s possession. Congress also had another hearing on steroids in baseball, with pitcher Roger Clemens and his former trainer.

The whole HGH hearing was a complete joke. Do they want to criminilize people because they want to look younger now? They assumed that HGH actually does build muscle, yet contrary to common belief, there is no real scientific studies that prove HGH actually definitively even builds muscles. In fact, most bodybuilders will tell you they believe it does more for burning fat, than building actual muscle. When some of the “experts” were asked from the congress about studies on HGH and muscle building, they all agreed that there were no real studies showing it as a muscle builder, but they assumed only because it was a flawed study and not because it just may very well be not a effective muscle builder. Of course, the congress would have had to be UN-biased to see that argument! You gotta love how some of the congressman even started asking about B12, a perfectly legitimate vitamin. What a invasion of privacy and ridiculous spectacle both of these hearings were and I couldn’t believe these people were treating it like as if steroids and HGH were crack.

The 2nd hearing was a absolute disgrace, when they put the greatest baseball pitcher of all time, Clemens, into this circus. Now, I could care less who did what, I just happened to watch it because I was curious to know what the idiots in our congress were saying. I don’t know why Clemens even bothered to go to this meeting. You know the congress is biased and are going to try and make you look bad. And then they will try to pin you into a suspected lie, so they can try to go after you with the feds like they are doing with Miguel Tejada, Barry Bonds, and others.

The congress should have better things to do. Look at the problems facing our country and they are concerned about whether Clemens and other baseball players are taking steroids and HGH. I’m glad that some of the republicans said to that fact during the hearings. It appears the liberal pinhead Waxman from California who is in charge of this charade, has a real personal vendetta in railroading people, for no real reason other than for sensationalism and ignorance.
