Back off Palin!

Readers of this blog know that I'm more than happy to rip on Sarah Palin when just cause exists. And it usually does.

But mocking her for "pardoning" a turkey, and then ignoring that other turkeys are being killed?

For the love of God, what's she supposed to do? Order the workers to stop the slaughter? Fall into a feminine faint? C'mon, people. 

P.S.--What is laughable is the delicate fuzzing-out of the image of the turkey being killed. Like if we don't see the actual moment of death, we can all pretend that the Meat Fairy brings the Thanksgiving bird.
