While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher, who’s hand was caught in the gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Palin and her bid.
The old rancher said, “Well, ya know, Palin is a Post Turtle’”.
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a ‘post turtle’ was.
The old rancher said, “When you’re driving down a country road you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a ‘post turtle”.
The old rancher saw the 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, and she doesn’t know what to do while she’s up there, and you just wonder what kind of dummy put her up there to begin with”.

Now imagine that little turtle up there on that post, that little Sarah Palin turtle, just flailing those legs and the rancher scratchin’ his head, and then Sarah the turtle sees the rancher looking at her and she immediately strikes a turtle pose. Maybe sticks out her turtle butt a little, shakes her turtle tail. Just when the rancher thought she was cute and was going to help little Sarah the turtle out, she starts to say things like, “And again…such as…also…maverick…hockey mom…also…such as…you betcha dogonit…and again such as…also…maverick also.”
The rancher then turns and walks away thinking to himself there must be a reason for the Impalin’ of that Sarah the turtle Palin and that there was probably a lesson in there somewhere worth learnin’.
