    Funny, if we only use pictures of the dead - let's put a picture of the USPS itself on a stamp! :sun:

    I thought they changed this policy a while ago?

    Also, not seeing the connection to the thread title and the article.

    Because Obama's being elected is such a huge, world-changing, miracle inducing event that they would have to change their policy.

    Is there any evidence whatsoever that they're doing it because they want to put Obama on a stamp, or is this just ODS run amok?

    Tafkats is a perfectly decent fellow. Heck, I side with him all the time. Anyone who besmirches Tafkats is clearly racist. :cylon:

    And you do not wanna be racist against one of these things. They can turn your planet into a sun.
