Cramer's wicked take on MSM's faux beatification of the Pardoner:

   St. Gerald, worker of miracles, pray for us.

Say this prayer 9X a day, by the 8th day your prayer will be answered. You will not be indicted & will be spared the embarrassment of a public trial, provided you are a Republican. It has never been known to fail. Publication must be promised. Send your $4.00 publication fee to PO Box 78, Pleasantville, NY 10570.]

Check out her photoshopped Ford ikon, quite tasty. In all the hand-wringing and "context" over the last few days, the disgusting fact remains that Ford's pardon allowed one of the worst criminals in American politics to escape punishment, an act that, as Shakespeare's Sister pointed out, set the stage for future Presidents to feel above the law. Run guns to the Contras, mine Nicaraguan harbors, make shit up to justify a bogus war. The hits just keep coming. Thanks, Saint Gerald.

Oh, and you did a good job on the Warren Report, too. Your edit made things much clearer.
