It's not every day that the President of the United States issues an executive order to pardon a flightless fowl, but it does happen at least once every year. The tradition of granting amnesty to an agricultural prisoner otherwise doomed to be dinner on Thanksgiving Day, shows a slightly humorous side to the nature of politics in Washington, DC. This year, as last year, and dating back generations, was no different. President Barack Obama pardoned a turkey for Thanksgiving. In this editorial cartoon of Obama pardoning a Thanksgiving turkey, the bird has the words "fiscal cliff" written on it, symbolizing the state of affairs for America's economy. This political business cartoon drawing was published in the binary options news of OptionsClick on November 22, 2012 on http://blog.optionsclick.com/2012/11/22/asian-stocks-up-as-chinese-manufacturing-increases/ for editorial financial news consumers as well as the public-at-large, and online traders of binary options and other financial devices.
