The Final Score

While walking through the hallway of the Rayburn building this afternoon, I heard someone say, "See ya later, Mr. Towns." I stopped short. The name immediately hit a chord with me.

Edolphus Towns, the Democrat from NY, met with Roger Clemens while Clemens was on his Rocket Does Congress tour a few days before his hearing. And Towns and Clemens even held a joint news conference that day in which Towns expressed support for The Rocket and denounced Brian McNamee.

So, naturally, I chased Towns down to see what he thinks about Clemens now. Towns, without blinking, said, "I think Clemens is guilty, of course I do. I think he was lying."

You gotta love politicians.
