Ahhh... Thanksgiving … That uniquely American tradition of sitting around the bountiful dinner table, enjoying the company of family and friends, and remembering this 1955 Newsreel:
 
"As Thanksgiving nears, a seasonal gift to President Eisenhower is this strutting, impressive 39-pound Tom Turkey. Handsomest bird in all Nebraska. And perhaps the other 47 states as well. All the trimmings for the White House dinner come with him. A big basket of cranberries to complete the holiday platter. It's a lucky bird that graces the President's table. And he's gobbling with excitement at the prospect."

 
Sadly for handsome 39-pound Tom Turkey, his luck soon ran out.
President Eisenhower ate him.
Decades later, with America more enlighted, tukeys no longer get eaten. They get pardoned.
Presidential pardons.
These days, Thanksgiving presidential turkey pardons are big, extravagant White House events.
With comical turkey names, comical turkey quips, and lots of giggles and gobbles.
Which can mean only thing: It's time for an "Extreme Mortman" White House Thanksgiving Presidential Turkey Pardon Ceremony contest.
