I came across an article at ArmchairGM (via Reddit) about Barry Bonds vs. Mark McGwire: who was the better steroid user?. Personally, I thought they did the wrong comparison. They should be looking at Al Gore.
Let's assume that Barry Bonds uses/used steroids. Let's assume the same thing about Al Gore.
Nothing too controversial about either assumption, right? Right. But it's sure fun.
Which guy's steroids regimen was the way to go?
Barry Bonds is likely to break Hank Aaron's home run record, but Al Gore has been breaking box office records himself. The numbers alone were not enough for us to go on, so I present some pictures here.

Here both Barry and Gore are looking pretty slim and twig-like.

Barry is trying to decide whether he should start using steroids and Al Gore is learning about this new thing called the World Wide Web.

Here they both are during the '90s, but both of them are still looking natural. Gore looks like he could use some steroids.

Here's a picture of Gore winning the 2008 presidential election. He clearly has Bonds beat on the steroids use, and doesn't even have to use body armor to win the presidency, unlike Bonds.

And here they are at their most bulky. Do you see what steriods does to you, kids? It makes you look like the sword-arm guy from 300.
Here's a picture of them from their rookie year, just to show you how much they've changed:

These pictures pretty clearly show the use of illegal performance enhancing drugs by both people. Are we going to start screening for drugs before we swear in a United States President or are we going to allow this abuse to continue?
