Jury Selection for Roger Clemens

The reason this article is funny to me, is because of all the jury candidates who simply questioned the big waste of time and money that Congress is spending on the case.

"Even members of Congress have lied to Congress and they have not been prosecuted," said one of the panelists who was excused.

One potential juror said he saw the documentary "Bigger, Stronger, Faster*" that questioned whether steroids should be illegal and suggested the Clemens investigation was a waste of congressional resources. The man, who is chief financial officer at an accounting firm, called the film convincing and said he agreed Congress should have higher priorities than steroids.

"Given all the problems the country faces, it wouldn't have been high on my list," the CFO said.

A woman who works as a federal contracting officer had a similar opinion, although she expressed reluctance to question lawmakers' decisions. Prosecutor Steven Durham pressed her on whether she believes the investigation was a waste of taxpayer money. She paused, smiled and acknowledged, "Honestly, yes."

Kind of reminds me of the $120 Million dollars spent on finding out whether or not Bill Clinton was cheating on his wife.

I don't know that that was how much spent but I do know that that wasn't what he was investigated for.
