I've long thought this to be #1`in our stupid ceremonial things the President does. If elected I promise to slaughter the turkey with my own hands right there in white shirt sleeves with the press corp watching. I find it passing strange that someone who'd never stay the hand of the executioner when it comes to human beings would spare the life of an overbred bird that'll be dead from heart failure inside of a month. Feed the thing to someone.
