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.
