Why is it that Congress gets all upset and throws a hissy fit when someone lies to them but finds it acceptable to lie to the American people continually?

Good question but a better point is why are they even involved in this steroids scandal? Seems to me that there time and money could be spent on better things
this ^^^^^
Or why, if they need so desperately to be involved in baseball's little mess, they don't equally need to be involved in the NFL lockout or the idiocy known as the BCS/NCAA.

Roger Clemens lied under oath. Congress is not under oath, when talking to the media. The first is perjury, the second is politics.

Really? I'd thought baseball lost its relevance sometime around 1954. I'm still trying to get the rest of the English speaking world to kill off cricket, in exchange, we'll put a fork in baseball and the world will be a happier place.

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."
I wish Congress would go fist themselves to a bloody mess as much as the next guy, but technically they are not swearing any allegiance to us; they are swearing allegiance to the Constitution. You could argue that telling the truth to the American people is part of the "duties of the office on which I am about to enter," but I don't buy it. Their duty is to support and defend the Constitution by any means necessary. If that includes lying to the American people, then so be it.
If you want to argue that Congress is failing in its duty to uphold the Constitution, then I will wholeheartedly agree.

I would love to be held in contempt of Congress. I'd put that on my business card and on my tombstone.

Obama is the Antichrist apparently.
no racist
at this point in the process, I can only assume it was a typo and they meant to say "cram"...
When Obama is our new Czar I'm going to be very nice to those of you who believed in change and hope. You will be the first to receive FEMA Relief.
I believe this whole steroid/congress thing started before Obama was in office didn't it?
Nah, it's Obama's fault. Everything is.

So it's Bush's Fault ?
