         A turkey has a much better chance of being pardoned by George W Bush than a human.

In fact, out of all 16 turkeys whose fate was determined by Bush every single one was pardoned, whereas only 1 out of 155 humans has been granted clemency.

This works out to 100% of turkeys receiving pardons and only 0.65% for humans.

Here are the details of pardons granted or denied by Bush during his period as US President and Governor of Texas.
