The Senate Ethics Committee will hold hearings on President Obama's pardoning of Cobbler the Turkey on the eve of last Thanksgiving. Accusations have surfaced that Cobbler had actually lost the public's internet vote and that it was Gobbler the Turkey who should have been spared. Though the president said that neither bird would be killed no one outside of his daughters and pre school children took him seriously. Gobbler was reported to have been delicious.
Quotes from the buzz:
"Obama didn't have to pardon either of them. He could have eaten them both and you know he wanted to. There's a way a skinny man looks at a fat bird. "
"Cobbler? What are you talking about? If we didn't already have the term 'turkey neck' that feather bag would have forced us to make it up."
"Everybody thinks Gobbler was so buff but I know turkeys and I'm telling you he was obese."
"At my place Obama would have had to pardon a pizza."
"Obama had to pardon Cobbler after UN Ambassador Rice assured the world Gobbler was going down."
"Voters who didn't own a computer or weren't online had to wait hours at libraries to have their voices heard."
"I think the Chinese hacked this election."
"They were both white. Where's the choice?"
"I think the turkey should have pardoned the president."
"I had to chose between two turkeys earlier this month."
