First of all, if you read back on Lincoln, he loved telling the occasional bawdy joke and being out among regular folks, Obama said.
As the Washington Post reported in 2012, Lincoln was indeed a jokester. And some of them didnt always land. A story with the punch line Now, by God, Ill see if I cant cut up this turkey without farting was included in the Posts list of Lincolns worst jokes.
