In all fairness, steroids isn't much different from love. Funny how anti-drug people always glorify love, when really, if love wasn't 'natural', it would be as demonized as heroin, crack and cocaine combined.

Nonsense.

Noob is the perfect hug-a-thug. He and Roger Clemens should drink 40 oz malt liquors and listen to Tupac, or something.

I want scumbags locked away! I want Roger Clemens in prison, and for a long time! I'm not taking the side of criminals, like some people...

If you can figure out how to control your own 'love' drug, you would never 'suffer a broken heart'. It would be a life-long, free, helpful drug anti-drug assholes couldn't do anything about.

Let's get real here... drugs are not about right or wrong, they're about authority. It's the government subverting liberty by spinning drugs as evil (inanimate objects can be neither evil nor good), and deceiving people into believing by abusing authority (in direct violation of the Constitution), they are doing some noble, virtuous thing. It is classic propaganda... only showing one side of the coin... half-truth.

Why do the American people continue allowing the subversion of the Constitution? Why do the American people keep getting duped by politicians who only use these types of issues to increase their own power (authority), and to increase the size of their bank accounts? These politicians shit on everything this country was founded on - freedom, liberation, the Constitution - and yet they are elected and re-elected by the clueless masses.

This country will continue being fucked up until there are adequate civics lessons in public education.

In fact, the 'war on drugs' could be viewed as treason. It is impossible to fight inanimate objects... this war on drugs is really a war on the American people who choose to use. Even further, a war on the Constitution (as every drug law is in clear violation of the 8th amendment, among other things). A war on the American people and the Constitution would have to constitute levying war on the United States.

And what really pisses me off about the whole thing is if it were you or I we would get the maximum. But oh let's only let so much out about the sports world, a tease to keep interest peeked and our attention diverted from the real issue. Drug companies are pushing these drugs. I was part of a growth hormone study and that stuff messed me up. Why donesn't Congress hold hearing on the drug companies abuses of animals and humans? Then there is the environmental impact.............................
Bush should not be allowed to Pardon anyone after what he has done and let happen to our country and in Iraq. Just like they Censured Bill Clinton, they could deprive Bush of certain "privliges" as well.

The American government is not a parent, it is a servant.

I actually have mixed feelings about this. I don't believe we pay these people to be role models, but we make them role models; and heroes.

Kids are taught to look up to them. That's sad.

These people don't deserve it.

In that our kids DO look up to these people, and the kids are taught to do so, I believe that if these athletes get caught breaking the law, the kids should see them get punished.

I believe, for example, when Alamar spit at the umpire, he should have been arrested. When Tyson bit Holyfield's ear, he should have been arrested.

As to the concept of a Bush pardon for Clemens? What for the Bush pardons for Cheney, Gonzales, et al.
