Palin - Post Turtle

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75-year old Texas rancher, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.

Eventually the topic got around to Sarah Palin: what did the old rancher think about this woman running for Vice-President of the US of A?

“Well, ya know, Palin is a post-turtle.”

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

“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 ass put her up there to begin with!”
