Fence Post Turtle

 

While suturing up a cut on the hand of a 75 year old southerner, whose hand had been caught in the gate while working his cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Obama, and his being our President.

The  old southerner said, "Well, ya’ll know, Obama is just a Post Turtle."

Now not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked, “What's a "Post Turtle?"

The old southerner 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 southerner saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued to explain. “You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, he sure as heck ain't goin' anywhere, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put him up there in the first place…”
