    wearyofdancingnow: honeyed: willifred: Actual buttons used by the Richard Nixon Campaign in 1972. I do not understand, did “dick” and “lick” just not mean the same thing 40 years ago? Nope. “Lick” meant “to beat” (“If you can’t lick ‘em, join ‘em”) so it was a clean and unhilarious slogan back in the day.

      So what they are really saying is that “they can’t beat our dick”. Checks out clean.
