And it is an election year. Baseball and steroids are front page news. What politician doesn't want to make the front pages for trying to "save" America's pastime.

Still doesn't justify it. Any American with half a brain should see straight through any political spin they put on this.
The country is at war, the economy is almost in a recession, and Congress is wasting tax money on a baseball player who did "nothing wrong" in the grand scheme of things.
Sure there is something good to come out of this. It will send a good message to the American youth that drugs are not good, but this is a big price to pay.
Sad day in America if you ask me.
