Bush Pardons Two Turkeys and Supports SOFA

President Bush pardoned two delicious turkeys on Thanksgiving this year. Their names are Pumpkin and Pecan. They are no doubt grieving over the recent deaths of their many friends and family members, who had their corpses desecrated and eaten. To cheer them up they are both going to Disneyland and Pumpkin is going to be Grand Marshal of Disneyland's Thanksgiving day parade. No one knows what will become of Pecan except that he will be accompanying Pumpkin on the plane flight to Disneyland. My guess is that Mickey Mouse will eat him.

President Bush also made a statement on two agreements between the USA and Iraq. Recently, as many of you know, Iraq's Council of Representatives approved a Strategic Framework Agreement and a Security Forces Agreement. The Strategic Framework Agreement sets the stage for a future relationship between the two countries while the Security Forces Agreement addresses the withdrawal of US troops in the near future. Instead of President Bush seeing this as a sign of defeat because we are being kicked out, he saw it as an example of how much stronger Iraq's democracy has become that they no longer need us. If President-elect Obama stays true to President Bush's statement, a Republican was holding the office of president when the plans for full withdrawal of US troops began.
