Clemens subpoenas Congress

Oh, this is going to be good for plenty a punch line and more.

Roger Clemens
, the clown price of white steroid users, has subpoeanaed the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee over alleged stonewalling of documents.

There's irony here 15 ways from Sunday.

We have:
  • Roger the Dodger pretending to have the law-abiding high ground;
  • The committee claiming that it couldn't turn over the requested documents because of legislative vs. judicial branch separation of powers;
  • A guarantee of this itself going before a judge, with yet more posturing by both sides.

Hell, Andy Pettitte could unretire and re-retire from the Yankees half a dozen times before this plays out.
