truthiness

So I'm trying to do this assignment for my art 331 class which entails coming up with people to put on a stamp and the advertisement that would be for said stamp. On my list of ideas thus far is Stephen Colbert and the first thing that came to my mind was something along the lines of "The truthiness is, this stamp is great." Then I realized that I didn't exactly know what it meant, truthiness that is, only that Colbert had invented the word. Upon researching this I found out that he did in fact coin the term in 2005 and it is in 2 dictionaries. It means an inherent truth or "gut feeling". With this I found an amusing picture...enjoy! Back to the drawing board for me.
