President Obama ..... of North America has done the traditional pardoning of the Thanksgiving turkey. A turkey named Cobbler will be spared death by the lethal injection of butter, as will his friend Gobbler.
A petition to save both the birds was signed by 28,000 people.
Another turkey that was jokingly named Mitt due to its resemblance to the failed presidential candidate Mitt Romney was hacked in half by Obama's bare hand in some quite impressive karate chops.
Obama's daughters Sasha and Malia looked on licking their lips at what was to be a fine Thanksgiving dinner while some old cracker held the bird.
Americans are a strange people.
