I or someone, may have posted this one before; no matter, it's worth another lookysee ! No, no .. this is not a political post ! More like a generic insult to the 90% out there, deserving of a boot up the keister !
Fall is here, winter looms .... something for the indoor hours .... look up ... Brainy Quote ..... Hundreds, if not thousands of 'em by Reagan, Churchill, Will Rogers, Ike, Ghandi , Twain .... an insult or whatever, may be found for every occasion !
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old farmer, whose hand was
caught in the squeeze gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a
conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to
Politicians and their role as our leaders.
The old rancher said, "Well, you know, most Politicians are 'Post
Turtles'.''
...
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 and 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 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's elevated
beyond his ability to function, and you just wonder what kind of dumb arse
put him up there to begin with."
Best explanation I've heard yet.
