Picture of the Day - 2

















The annual turkey pardoning at the White House today. Funny, funny, ha ha ha.

But what I found more interesting were the non-photo-op moments. Below find the entering and exiting shots from today's event.








With Iraq, Lebanon, the poor Asian trip, the Dems in Congress, you can see the weight on him.

  • I have to wonder... is it his conscience or ego that's bothering him?

    OK, I'm not really 'wondering'...

  • The last pic looks like he's taking a piss.

  • I think he's just finally realizing how bad it all is.

    And, Romunov, I got kind of a defeated Nixon flash off that one.

  • I think the turkey was drugged...it was too docile. I've dealt with some turkeys in my day...and they definitely don't let themselves be handled like that and not make a move.

  • I actually read a thing on this. They train them for months feeding them by hand, men in jumpsuits resembling business suits while they play loud and sudden noises. They might drug them some, but it's a whole thing. Maybe 50, a 100 man hours for this, so the emporer can pardon a turkey.

  • Yep, that turkey was OBVIOUSLY drugged. And it looks like maybe the bird was, too...
