Obama family distributes Thanksgiving treats.
The Obama family passed out turkeys, stuffing and other Thanksgiving favorites to people at a food pantry organization.

President Barack Obama tucked pumpkin pies into people's bags at Martha's Table in downtown Washington on Wednesday evening and wished them a happy holiday.

Obama's two daughters, first lady Michelle Obama and her mother, Marian Robinson, worked alongside the president, putting canned food, stuffing, and fresh vegetables into bags. Those in line also received frozen turkeys.

Children who attend educational services at the organization designed some of the bags.

2. good.
and VP Biden volunteered at a kitchen recently, too.

i think it's more than photo ops. i do think they care.

they should show they care even more by ending interventionism, passing a real public option, and stopping the idiotic drug war.
