The pardon Governor Charlie Crist of Florida secured that clears a conviction from the late Jim Morrison's record (story)  falls short of what other band members contend the state of Florida owes their former band mate.  Claiming  '...grandstanding by ambitious politicians' was behind bogus charges of lewd behavior brought against the lead singer in 1969, band and family members issued a statement saying an apology was in order in addition to the pardon.  The unanimous decision of the clemency board to vacate the conviction has angered both supporters of the band's lead singer and those who feel the verdict should stand.
