Palin Screws Up Turkey Pardon

The yearly pardoning of a turkey to spare it from death before Thanksgiving is the ultimate photo op for a governor. It's an easy way to get your name in the press for something no one disagrees with. Unless you are Sarah Palin. She managed to screw up that ceremony by giving an interview about her pardon while another bird was being slaughtered in the background.

While that is certainly funny, her the nonsensical rambling statements she made during the interview are equally funny:

"It's nice to support a local business and just participate in something that isn't so heavy handed politics that invites criticism," Palin said during the interview. "Certainly will probably invite criticism for even doing this too, but at least it was fun." She also said "I am always in charge of the turkey so I am where I need to be today to prepare for that."
