Turkey wasn’t a national Thanksgiving staple until the 20th century. I can’t remember if it was WWI or WWII, but it was returning GIs that ended up making turkey a national thing. I’d rather have pizza.
That statement by Opus on panel 2 seems very odd considering he is not too different from a turkey himself. Remember in the old days when he and Cutter John occupied a KFC in protest of serving chickens as food? “Sir, some of my best friends are chickens. DISMEMBERMENT? Are you BARBARIANS?”
If pregnant pauses are giving you stretchmarks, Opus, you are either wallowing in your fantasies a little too much or are the victim of lurid cartoon exaggeration….

“Dude” with double pointing? Milo seems to have turned into the type of person he used to mock.

“Mr. President, I’m sorry, I tried to stop him, but…”
“Mr. President! On this Thanksgiving Day, I want to thank you so much for pardoning me and my friend and… uh… What are you eating?!”

Has any president “Not” pardoned that turkey, and had him served up for Thanksgiving?

President Truman was the first to issue a Turkey Pardon. Unfortunately no federal turkeys have been executed since then.
