Yesterday, I got a lump in my throat watching President Trump pardon Drumstick and Wishbone in the annual Pardon the Bird ceremony at the White House. There was also a clip from last year showing Obama pardoning Tater and Tot. In my inquiring mind, I wondered: ‘Why are only white turkeys pardoned?’
I turned to Google for the answer and searched Presidential turkey pardons. Sure enough: all turkeys pardoned by previous presidents were white. Don’t black turkeys deserve a break sometime? Obviously not! Even Tater and Tot, who were white, got pardoned by a black president.
I guess the moral is: Black turkeys don’t matter.
I see a tee shirt in there somewhere.
You are welcome and Happy Thanksgiving
