While suturing a laceration on the hand of a 70-year old Texas rancher (whose
hand had caught in a gate while working cattle), a doctor and the old man
were talking about George W. Bush in the White House.

The old Texan said, "Well, ya know, Bush is a 'post turtle'." 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,
"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 bastard get down."
