Palmeiro receives thank you cards

Satire

Baseball slugger Rafael Palmeiro has received hundreds of "Thank You" cards in the wake of his ten day suspension for use of a banned substance. Among the notable:

Karl Rove: Thank you for keeping my "inadvertent" outing of a CIA operative off the front page.

John Roberts: Thank you for giving me a week off from more questions about Roe v. Wade. Why does no one ask me about Plessy v. Ferguson?

Mark McGwire: Let's not talk about the past, Raffy, but thank you for the present.

Baseball media: Thank you, Raffy, for sparing us more stories about how much the trade market sucked. Plus, no more debate: you're out of the hall.

Jose Canseco: Thank you for making me look like a credible journalist.
