But it's my first try at making what they call an eye-commerce site on the Internets, and Laura said she'd help me but she didn't.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here at Prez Pardons, I believe in the Christian ideal of Forgiveness for your Sins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If, of course, you can Show me the Money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;So far, a whole bunch of satisfied customers&lt;/span&gt; have showed me the money and bought my presidential pardons.

You go, Dubya. If you're thinking about going public on this very profitable enterprise, I might have a few ideas for you on how to get that stock price way up into the stratosphere."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6218/606/1600/tom.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6218/606/320/tom.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Tom DeLay:&lt;/span&gt; "Thanks a million, George, for &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;exterminating &lt;/span&gt;my conviction.

At the very reasonable price tag of $3.4 billion, the pardon barely dented our balance sheet.

Knew you'd come through for me, you handsome devil."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you see, with all these satisfied customers&lt;/span&gt;, there's no need for you to worry about the quality of my presidential pardons. All you need to do is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;click the button&lt;/span&gt; and get one!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;FAQ:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;How much does the pardon cost?*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My presidential pardons can be bought at very reasonable prices, no matter what crime you committed. But the price depends a little bit on how big the crime is, how many friends on &lt;a href="http://thinkprogress.org/2006/01/13/k-street-project/"&gt;K Street&lt;/a&gt; you have, and how much you might have already paid me or my friends and family and supporters before (we can give you a prepayment discount for some of that money). If you're not &lt;a href="http://www.gregpalast.com/bushs-heir-cut-awards-tax-break-to-son-of-an-astor" target="_blank"&gt;one of the main beneficiaries of my tax breaks&lt;/a&gt;, chances are you won't be able to afford one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you click the button, you'll have a chance to talk to Mr. Cheney, my official Presidential Pardon Negotiator, and he'll help you figure out how much it's going to cost you. Don't let him shoot you in the face! Heh, heh, heh, sorry Dick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Do I need to be convicted of a crime first?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nope! My pardons have a &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;unique pro-retroactive&lt;/span&gt; feature attached to them, which means you can buy them &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;before&lt;/span&gt; the conviction (proactive), but use them &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;after &lt;/span&gt;(retroactive). That's part of what makes Prez Pardons so special.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;How long does it take to get my pardon?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anywhere from one to two weeks after I receive your wire transfer to my &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A58298-2005Feb2.html"&gt;Cayman Islands&lt;/a&gt; account.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;I heard you usually have to admit you're guilty of the crime you've been convicted of in order to get a presidential pardon. Do I have to in order to get one from you?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Admitting you're guilty would be tantamount to admitting that you're guilty. And that's just wrong in my book. So no.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Is it legal to sell presidential pardons?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.thenation.com/doc/20060220/cole" target="_blank"&gt;When the president does it, that means that it is not illegal&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Do you offer discounts for package deals, such as the various members of a conspiracy?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We sure do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;What if I can't afford a pardon?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tough cookies. What do you think I am, a communist? Pull yourself up by your bootstraps, felon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;What about Barney?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was hoping you'd ask that. Yes, each presidential pardon comes included with a complimentary autographed 8x10 glossy photo of First Dog Barney. A lovable momento for the home or office. He's cute as a button.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Where are the pardons manufactured?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of my presidential pardons are Proudly Made in the U.S.A. Specifically, in the &lt;a href="http://www.house.gov/georgemiller/marianasupdate.html"&gt;Northern Marianas Islands&lt;/a&gt; by young, hard-working, dedicated women who are guaranteed fetus-free. (For more information on the Northern Marianas Islands, please contact satisfied customers &lt;a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/05/09/real.delay/" target="_blank"&gt;Tom DeLay&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.msmagazine.com/spring2006/paradise_full.asp" target="_blank"&gt;Jack Abramoff&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Why are you selling pardons? Aren't you rich enough already?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I were rich enough already, what the hell do you think I'd be doing in politics?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Do I have to accept Jesus Christ as my personal savior to get a pardon?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not necessarily, but accepting Jesus Christ as your personal savior may entitle you to a special Non-Heathen pardon discount.
