Do you really think that the circus that they are enacting has anything to do with keeping corruption (ala boxing) out of baseball? I have been watching the testimony over the past, and today in particular, and it is a fiasco, with each congressman basically prostletizing from their chair. They barely give the witnesses a chance to respond, and when they do, they ridicule them. If the witness tries to answer back, they are silenced, either by Waxman and the gavel, or by the representative saying, "I only have 5 minutes." So, they have to just sit there and take it. Then when the questioning is over, the paparazzi go wild. It is a true CIRCUS! It's disgusting.
Any body watch the films of the McCarthy trials from back in the day? It reminds me of that...
