Same old post turtle -- with a new face and Tina Fey glasses

This story was going around about Bush eight years ago...and look where we are today because of a post turtle (and his handlers) who didn't belong up there. Those who are intelligent will take warning from this story in our next voting opportunity. Those who liked the Bush post turtle will simply be voting for another one. (sigh)

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75-year-old Texas
rancher whose hand was caught in a gate while working
cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old
man. Eventually the topic got around to Sarah
Palin and her bid to be a heartbeat away from being
President.

The old rancher said, 'Well, ya know, Palin is a
post turtle.'

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him
what a post turtle was.

The old rancher said, 'When you're driving down
a country road and you come across a fence post with a
turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle.'

The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor's
face, so he continued to explain. 'You know she
didn't get up there by herself, she doesn't
belong up there, she doesn't know what to do while she
is up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb idiot put
her up there to begin with."
