Rep. Weiner to FBI: Drop Clemens Inquiry

He says Clemens has suffered enough from the probe into steroid use.

The congressman added the FBI is busy with more important issues, and shouldn't spend time trying to determine if Clemens lied to Congress about taking performance enhancing substances.

Weiner suggests his fellow lawmakers have gone far enough with inquiries into steroids use by professional athletes in general, and says it's time for professional sports leagues to handle the matter.

The Department of Justice hasn't replied to Weiner's comments so far.
