My Thanksgiving Message
Every year, the spectacle of the President pardoning turkeys gets me upset. Turkeys! There are so many actual people who need commutations and pardons-- and who have earned them.
And every year I write a little piece in protest. Previously, these have appeared in the Washington Post, the Detroit News, the Waco Tribune Herald and a few other places. This year's edition is probably my favorite, since I messed with the form a little. It appears in the Minneapolis Star Tribune today-- you can read it here.
