Malia and Sasha Obama Celebrate Thanksgiving

by Stacy Hinojosa Nov 26th 2009 at 2:05PM

Malia Obama and Sasha got up close and personal with a Thanksgiving turkey on Wednesday.

They were participating in a White House tradition - the annual presidential turkey pardon where the President saves one turkey from being killed for Thanksgiving dinner. This year's lucky bird was named Courage.

Later in the day, Malia and Sasha helped pass out food at a food bank for families in need.

I think Malia and Sasha are so adorable and fabulous....... They are a great experience for Obama. They keep their cool, and celebrate holidays too! That's special.

Yes, I'm a Republican, too and I may not care for Obama and his descisions for our country but they're still kids and it's cool to see them lead a normal life.

I am also a Republican and I think Obama is stupied! I mean he thinks it RIGHT to kill little baby's and YES there are babys even if there are only 1 day old in there mothers womd it would be like going out and killing a 1 year old its just like killing a unborn baby! and yes I am Pro-Life!

yes, i think it's wrong because you get sentenced to jail because you kill somebody, but it's not wrong to kill a baby? A BABY?!?! What is this world coming to?!

I agree with you 100% killing a baby is Murder!!!!! He can dress it up however he likes but he'll never change what it really is. Taking the life of another human being. It should never be made easy to take an innocent baby's life. Human life begins at conception and if you have an abortion, you are killing a person who can feel, the same as you and me.
