While suturing the hand of a grizzled 80-year old Texas rancher (whose
hand had gotten caught in a gate while working cattle), the doctor and the
old man were talking about John Kerry's possibility of being in the White
House.
The old Texan said, "Well, ya know, Kerry's one of them 'post turtles'."
Not knowing what the old man meant, the doctor asked him what a post
turtle was.
The old man 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 man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to
explain.
"You know he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't belong there, he
can't get anything done while he's up there, and you just want to help the
poor dumb b*****d get down 'afore he hurts himself."
