Congress will decide by the end of the week whether to ask the Justice Department to investigate whether Roger Clemens or Brian McNamee lied to Congress. Given that their two testimonies were diametrically opposed, someone is clearly lying. Congress can recommend that neither, one, or both be investigated. To my mind, both should be investigated. Personally I think that Roger is not telling the truth, but in the interest of fairness, both should be investigatged.
To not investigate would make a mockery of our justice system and allow perjury before Congress to stand - a very bad precedent. Roger should not be able to get off because he is famous and the “hero” of some in Congress. Brian should not be able to make false testimony destroying somebody’s reputation. The truth needs to be found out. The guilty party needs to be punished.
