Obama has issued his first pardon as the United States President, whereby his first pardon goes to a turkey named Courage. Nevertheless, this particular turkey is in fact a gift from the National Turkey Federation. And according to the American history, it seems that President George H.W. Bush was the first to pardon a turkey, and I’m pretty sure that his customs lived on.
On the other hand, as part of the pardon, Obama mentioned to the turkey that ‘You are hereby pardoned’, and Courage will spend the rest of its life in Disneyland.
Well I’m sure everyone would appreciate some lighter mood, even though the economic recession has caused so much hardship for everyone.
