Found It:

DEAR MR. TOAD
IT'S SAD BUT TRUE
NOT NEARLY AS MARKETABLE
AS WINNIE THE POOH

Sort of. Cast Members at that attraction can turn the camel on and off, but the exact moments he spits are determined by a timer.

This is actually a new statue, not one moved from the former attraction.

Normally Central Shops uses different materials for indoor vs. outdoor construction, as the indoor fixtures don't have to be UV and water resistant. I suppose it's possible they stuck the old statue on a new base and coated both with an exterior treatement that is UV resistant, but that's not their usual approach.

But if you have that data from someone who worked in Shops or Imagineering at the time, I'll bow to that. I'll certainly grant that the figures came from the same mold, as the size and posture are the same.

I thought Snopes proved it was Washington spoofing Lincoln?

Lincoln made the mistake of not logging out of his Facebook account.
Washington just took advantage of that opprotunity. Now look what happened.
