3/18 Following his election (since he was appointed his first term), and
feeling quite self-important, Bush commissions a postage stamp with
his face on it, insisting it be of absolute top quality. The stamp
is created, printed and distributed, and Bush is delighted. But after
a few days, he begins receiving complaints that the stamp does not
stick to the envelope.
He summons those responsible and demands an inquiry. A committee is
formed, and a few weeks later issue its conclusion:
"There is nothing wrong with the quality of the stamps or the glue;
the problem is that people are spitting on the wrong side."
\_ Way too long for such a weak punch line. The best one I've heard
in a while was, "Well now at least *someone* in the White House
has combat experience". Not a gut buster, but short, to the point,
your audience won't fall asleep before you get to the end, topical,
and a bit mean without being so mean that everyone can't enjoy it.

\_ Not to mention, dated; who licks postage stamps anymore?
Plus postage stamps can't have images of live people.
\_ Anyone using a small or large denomination stamp licks it.
\_ Colin Powell had combat experience.
\_ Didn't they run him out of the job?
\_ In the related news, GWB is preparing to publish his autobiography.
