Obama absolves Thanksgiving turkey with the Sign of the Cross
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/21/2012 | Charlie Spiering

While pardoning the Thanksgiving turkey today, President Obama absolved it with what he called a "special dispensation," making the Sign of the Cross over the gobbling turkey.

It appears that Obama made a left handed, backward sign of the cross.

He doesn’t know the proper way to do it because he’s not a Christian. Every Christian knows you make the sign of the cross with your right hand.

But he knows what mooslims do with their left hand.

I was thinking of them spliting after his second term. She likes the perks too much to leave now. I do believe I read someplace that they were close to divorce before he decided to run for POTUS the first time.

If you look carefully, the cross is inverted, as well.

Yep, exactly what I was thinking. Once euthanized, the meat has to go into the garbage.

Total waste; just like zero...

It looked right when he practiced it in the mirror.

That “troll” BS sure gets old. Whether here, or on liberal sites like democratic underground...anyone who doesn’t tow the PC line is a “troll’.
I’m as far right as it gets buddy, just don’t have a bit of faith in ANY religion. This mixing religion and politics is just what the lunatic Muslims do. Personally, I don’t care who your friend in the sky is. I don’t need one, and hope we can move this country off the socialist path we’ve been on for the last fifty years together.
If you insist on making your religious beliefs a litmus test, oh well, keep losing elections just like we did... big time.

I can’t wait to see a real president that will actually hack off the turkey’s head, instead of pardoning it. And look into the camera with crazed eyes and say “You’re next Hamas”.

I think this would be frickin’ AWESOME!

Also the president should prepare the damned thing too, and stuff it too.

Only if we had President Ted Nugent......
