Charlie Crist considers Jim Morrison pardon

By Michael J.W. Stickings

Yes, Florida Gov. Charlie Crist should pardon Doors lead singer Jim Morrison. (Is this really an issue?)

Richard Nixon, Jefferson Davis, Caspar Weinberger and his Iran-Contra cronies, George Steinbrenner, and Marc Rich get pardons, but Morrison doesn't?

What was he convicted of anyway? Indecent exposure and profanity at a concert in Miami in 1969? Oh, how awful.

Not that it matters all that much, not so many years later, but a pardon seems like the obvious and right thing to do.

Enjoy your Monday, everyone (as corny as this particular performance, on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, happened to be):
