That is just so very sweet.

My goodness. They got themselves a dog, take their children out for ice cream, go out for burgers, have folks over for a chat and a beer out in their yard, they have their very own vegetable garden that they all worked so hard to put in, they go on family vacations, they even share their children’s school grades with us, they have large BBQ’s for their friends and sleepovers, and now this. Oh my, they are so normal, they are really just one of us.

I am so moved and impressed. Oops, I think I just fainted.

Here, let me return their kindness... right this very minute, with unselfish devotion, I am giving the entire Obama family a bird.

Feel the love?

Mr. Obama, in his speech before the pardoning, also thanked a local turkey farm for its donation.

"Later this afternoon, Michelle, Malia, Sasha and I will take two of their less fortunate brethren to Martha's Table, an organization that does extraordinary work to help folks here in D.C. who need it the most. And I want to thank Jaindl's Turkey Farm in Orefield, Pennsylvania, for donating those dressed birds for dinner."

He didn't even have to pay for all the inconvenienced traffic, nor the security to take him to his photo op...

>>”The Obama family is passing out turkeys,...”<<

I’ve always wondered why one chosen turkey gets a pardon and so many others don’t. What’d they do wrong?

Don’t President’s usually celebrate Thanksgiving with a traditional dinner of turkey, etc?

Were the Turkeys they handed out to the people at the food pantry organization, FROZEN ?

I am trying to picture the microwave under the bridge.
