Are you Kidding Me?!?!?!

Let me begin by saying, I'm a huge sports fan and while baseball is not my favorite, I understand and follow the game. But, why in the world is our government wasting their time and efforts to probe in to the steroid/HGH debacle in baseball? Don't they have better things to do? Don't we have troops fighting overseas? Are we not in the middle of a foreclosure crisis that could force our county in to a recession? Immigration? Social Security reform? Health care reform? The bottom line is, there are more important issues for the government to focus their attention and our money on.

For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about, there will be a 2nd congressional hearing on the steroid problem in baseball later this month. The House Oversight Committee has invited a few players and others that were recently named/involved in the Mitchell Report (the investigation in to steroids and other performance enhancing drugs in baseball).

What I don't understand (besides the obvious question of why are they wasting their time on this issue), is what they expect to come out of this hearing? Are they going to fix the steroid problem in baseball? I understand that baseball players are role models for our youth, and some one needs to fix this problem. However, I don't think our government should be spending time on this problem. Is this why we voted for these people to represent us? I don't ever remember once in a debate a politician discussing their solutions to the steroid problem in baseball? Is this why we pay taxes? Where are their priorities?

Hopefully, they don't spend too much time on this issue and get back to work solving American's real problems.
