Thanksgiving! President Barack Obama Turkey Pardon: POTUS Cracks Jokes During
The president was flanked by daughters Sasha and Malia, whom he thanked “for once again standing here with me during the turkey pardon”.
President Obama trotted out his best jokes at the 2015 White House turkey pardon Wednesday afternoon in the Rose Garden, even getting some laughs from his daughters — who appeared at times disinterested in last year’s proceedings. He joked they “do this exclusively because it makes me feel good, not because they actually think that this is something I should be doing”. “He is Totus: turkey of the United States”.
The White House and the Pentagon are preparing to send to Congress a plan outlining more precisely how it would close the prison and where in the United States it might transfer detainees. “Yes. Simas, is he attacking you?”
E! News reported that the 14-year-old daughter of President Obama, Sasha, was looking perfectly cozy in her cream knit sweater, which she matched with a high-waisted denim pencil skirt.
President Barack Obama’s pardoning of a turkey named “Abe” this Thanksgiving has led some Chinese to gloat at the Japanese prime minister’s expense.
‘I thought it was pretty good, ‘ the president said back. “Are you okay? My political director is getting pecked by TOTUS”.
Once students learned about the historical context of turkey pardoning, they switch gears to American-themed names such as Liberty and Bell and the winning selection of Honest and Abe.
“So as Americans travel this weekend to be with their loved ones, I want them to know that our counterterrorism, intelligence, homeland security, and law enforcement professionals at every level are working overtime”.
On Wednesday, Malia and Sasha continued to show how well-behaved they are now by helping their famous parents serve a holiday-eve dinner at the Friendship Place Homeless Center in Washington. “Spending time with family and friends, and celebrating our blessings”, Obama said. Just kidding(ish)! The Thanksgiving holiday is conceptually bullshit and so is pardoning a turkey. Open to the public year-round, the 1,000-acre historic site was home to one of the largest turkey operations in the country during the 1930s, under the ownership of Virginia Governor Westmoreland Davis.
