Barack Obama released

Barack Obama is now back in the waters off the Florida Keys.  Not the president of course, but Barack Obama the turtle.  A  resident rescued the turtle back in January, the day before the president's inauguration.  Now, the Turtle Hospital in Marathon released the 200-pound creature after experts help nurse it back to help.  The hospital says since the turtle came near such a historic day it was appropriate to set it free on the Fourth of July.
