post turtle

While suturing a laceration on the hand of a 70-year-old Massachusetts business tycoon (whose hand had been caught in a fence while working at his country home), a doctor and the old man were talking about President George Bush possibly being in the White House one more term. The old tycoon 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 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 stupid thing get down."
