Is Congress Doing its Due Diligence (wrt Clemens and co.)?
I did not intend to have a Clemens/Congress thread here, but…
Why did no one ask Clemens:
“You have said that your wife admits to trying HGH, correct?” Presumably, the answer is “yes,” since he did.
“Appoximately when was the first (and perhaps only) time she used HGH?”
MacNamee claims that he gave her HGH injections just before the “swimsuit” layout in 2003. I did a (cursory) search on the Net and I could find no reference from Roger or his wife as to when THEY admit that she used HGH. I have to assume that they are not disputing the time frame (that it did in fact occur around 2003).
Following so far?
Now, the next question, assuming that Roger answers, “In 2003,” or, “I don’t know (in which case the qestioner can say, “MacNamee says it was in 2003, around the time of the swimsuit photo shoot - do you dispute that?")."
Now, one of our esteemed representatives asks, “Mr. Pettitte says that you discussed HGH with him in 1999 or 2000 and you claim that he was mistaken in that you discussed your wife’s HGH use and not yours, is that correct Mr. Clemens?”
Clemens: “Yes that is correct.”
Senator/Congressman: “Mr. Clemens, how could you have discussed your wife’s HGH use with Mr. Pettitte in 1999 or 2000 when she admittedly did not use HGH until 2003? Did you have some kind of crystal ball available to you at the time? Are you clairvoyant, Mr. Clemens? Do you have time machine which enables you to travel into the future? Or is Mr. Pettitte ‘misremembering’ the time frame of that conversation as well, by 3 or 4 years? Mr. Pettitte must have an awfully bad memory, sir. How does he remember the signs from the catcher when he is on the mound? Is that what all those pitcher/catcher meetings on the mound are all about, Mr. Clemens?”
What am I missing here?
