Juan Williams Purged By NPR

Radio Free Canada NPR leans strides forward.

Unfortunately the link doesn't provide a source that I would happily credit.  The maker of this photo is a photoshoping genius.  Thank you for making my day.

Update: By the way, could Cigar Guy be the illegitimate spawn of Jerry Colonna?
