355/208. The Thanksgiving Presidential Pardon

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- President Barack Obama continued the decades-old tradition of pardoning the innocent "National Thanksgiving Turkey." of the death sentence. Before the ceremony, President Obama spoke out about his presidential action, saying: "It feels pretty good to stop at least one shellacking this November," said the president, with complete oblivion to and disinterest in the BILLIONS of turkeys SLAUGHTERED for human consumption every year.
