Contributions to Rolex fund greatly appreciated

If some pictures are worth a thousands words, one picture might be worth a "stay out of jail" card. I refer to the haunting picture of Jesse Jackson Jr. contemplating his political demise and future 30 month prison sentence on the Chicago Tribune front page Thursday. Every office holder, every candidate, indeed, every person contemplating a career in public serv...ice should snip that photo, frame it, and place it in a prominent spot on their office desk. Every day they should look into the sorrowful, sunken eyes of a once prominent public official who threw his career and life away engorging his appetite for goodies and betraying the public trust. Anyone who does so will make better use of that Jackson visage than any the tens, maybe hundreds of thousands that graced his campaign literature.
