If you thought Charlie was going to turn into some lame-duck, has-been governor, think again.
The recently defeated governor of our very own Florida has decided to take it upon himself to let “The Doors” swing wide open and free in his final months in office.
Gov. Charlie Crist has publicly declared he’s considering pardoning the deceased fellow Floridian rocker Jim Morrison for indecent exposure and profanity charges stemming from 41-year-old charges at a Miami concert.
We’d like to see Gov.-elect Rick Scott pull something like this.
Saying the evidence against his fellow Florida State University alum was never very conclusive, he’s considering posthumously pardoning The Doors’ lead singer.
And Gov. Crist, we know we’ve given you a hard time in the past with your flip-flopping on abortion, gay adoption, oil spills, your political affiliation and just about everything else that’s passed through your desk during these past few years, but here’s to actually doing something useful with your last few months in office.
Who cares about SB6 potentially being pushed back through the soon-to-be veto-proof legislature? Who cares about Florida women who might potentially have to view ultrasounds of their fetuses after the new veto-proof legislature considers that whole bill again?
You did what you could, Charlie. We’re glad you’re now deciding to pardon a dead guy.
Let’s see Scott try to overturn this one.
