An IM:

all the sports talk radio talk (such as WFAN) is about [how embarrassing] the republicans were yesterday in the clemens hearing … GOP seemed to side with Clemens (as if they were starstruck) while the Dems seemed to be tough on everyone trying to get to the facts, and if anything sided with mcnamee … this had me wondering 1) why this hearing would for any reason split down party lines (seems to me it should be a partyless fact-finding mision) and 2) why the republicans of all people would side with anyone in this case and in the process end up looking like idiots
