The Day Sarah Palin Pardoned a Turkey

On a grim November day just two years ago, the recently defeated GOP candidate for vice president pardoned a turkey. And because she had yet to quit the only real job she ever had -- governor of Alaska -- she didn't have all these private jets at her service, so she did the "normal for the Palins" thing and just stopped by the abattoir on the way to Taco Bell. And then, as Sarah "pardoned" a turkey, other turkeys were shoved into the industrial maw of the slaughterhouse, in full view of the news cameras. Never Forget.
