  • Any number of old jokes are routinely dragged from where they've been hiding, dusted free of cobwebs, and sent around again, with new names inserted in place of old. The joke quoted above is one such howler. In previous years it has been aimed at other figures in American politics, such as John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, and George W. Bush (even though current USPS selection criteria state that No living person shall be honored by portrayal on U.S. postage.), as well as any number of world leaders: And in the United Kingdom: The jape is also sometimes put to use to slam those in the music world: And sports figures: But of course no matter who its target, the joke is a bit of a stretch since postage stamps that need to be moistened are usually licked, not spit upon.
