The History of the Presidential Pardon for a Thanksgiving Turkey

ImageThe pardoning of the turkey given to the President of the United States of America is a fairly modern tradition. In fact, it isn't even 20 years old yet. Contrary to popular myth, it wasn't Harry Truman or Abe Lincoln who pardoned the first turkey. It was George H.W. Bush in 1989.
