If you were curious as to why the Republicans on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform rose to the defense of Roger Clemens as he lied his ass off, it's really very simple: He's a Republican.
It wouldn't matter if he had roasted and consumed a puppy on national television; he's a Republican, so the other Republicans would stand up to proclaim and defend his right to eat puppies.
And that, in a nutshell, is a major reason why this country is so fucked: Republicans put party loyalty above everything else: Law, ethics, national security, you name it. Party loyalty trumps all.
