Look carefully at this ‘photo’ of the first Thanksgiving … see the slightly balding gentleman in the fancy duds standing to the left of the Native American taking a piece of turkey from the pilgrim chick?
That’s what they were called, pilgrim chicks. It’s History.
See him? YAAAS there’s Sen. Hatch right there! He even wrote his lovely wife Elaine a letter about the first Thanksgiving.
Dearest Elaine,
We enjoyed a joyous feast today with our gracious hosts. While some heatedly debated conspiracy theories regarding the Crown, I paid no heed, for the Turkey was delicious.
I look forward to you and the children joining us in the New World soon.

We knew he was old but WOW, right?
Happy Thanksgiving from Orrin and Elaine, here in the greatest country on earth. ?? pic.twitter.com/dl2vAUhnMx

Admit it, this was awesome.
Whoever is doing Orrin’s social media deserves a raise, truly, although part of us would love to think Orrin himself is writing the tweets but … yeah, probably not.
You're the best Senator pic.twitter.com/mZAAe0NoOb

He won Thanksgiving Twitter, hands down.
You were there, too? I had no idea.

HA!
Well played, Senator. Well played!

So well-played in fact that the usual suspects who crap on anything and everything patriotic showed up to shame the senator for his tweets:
Sen Hatch. You need to follow @KaitlinCurtice, @RuthHHopkins, @NotYourMascot or many other Native Americans. It will open your eyes. Or at least I hope so

Maybe try and get that stick out of yer backside.
Just sayin’.
… And then we stole the land and killed tons of 'em.

Guess it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without a bunch of guilt and shame from our dear friends on the Left. *sigh*
That being said, we here at Twitchy hope you all had a wonderful, shame-free day with your families and friends. We are so thankful for each and every one of you, even the cranks up there who have to poo-poo on pretty much everything. -Ed.
