No Harm, No Fowl
Somehow the president's photo-op "pardoning" of two turkeys who presumably, if this adminisration could be believed, are now free to live to a ripe old age, is emblamatic of everything happening in Washington these days. Make a big deal out of saving a couple of turkey lives while today we celebrate the annual national turkey holocaust, complete with stuffing. Mark my words, those supposedly repreived turkeys, having had their fifteen minutes, are by now, well, meat. White and dark. It wouldn't surprise me if some White House chef writes a tell-all book about the switcheroo one day, but it still won't be clear if the president ever knew. The buck stops over there somewhere.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

John, great cartoon!
Happy Thanksgiving, Rico
Funny cartoon John... and I like the commentary too. Although I'm not too up on the local politics... I get the drift... and have to agree there's something funny in the stuffing!
John... I hope you had a happy day today...
and HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone... from the this side of the puddle!
In a NY Times piece it was pointed out that due to their breeding the average life of a 40 lb turkey after the pardon is at most a year. Great cartoon John! roger
I don't see this as anything new John...The president has been pardoning stuffed turkeys throughout the year...especially the rich ones...
(great cartoon, as always!)
