Make no mistake about it either, McNamee lied to Congress, and Federal Investigators.  He told Congress he "didn’t hear about Roger using B-12 until 60 minutes" is one lie.  Another is, "I told the truth in the Mitchell Report."  There are several lies in the Mitchell Report, one is "I never talked to Roger again about PEDs after 2001." 

Clemens is under investigation for saying he had not had a conversation with McNamee about PEDs, which is not entirely true.  He did talk to McNamee about PEDs, but not regarding his own use, it was about his wife's use.  These are the grounds that Waxman thought appropriate to pursue a perjury charge against Clemens, but not on McNamee who is a criminal? 

Waxman could at least be consistent with his "distribution of justice."  If one lied about this, then they both lied about it; but only one is under investigation, as the other actual criminal (distributor) received immunity from a Federal District Court in California.

Does California have jurisdiction over Canada too, because despite any court in California, Toronto is the place where laws were allegedly broken?  Congressional Staffers actually warned Canadians about prosecution for making false official statements.  What a mess that would have been, and still may be.  The Hearst Corporation has called out the Federal Government regarding their actions relative the Mitchell Report as well.
