Post Turtle

[Spook]

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
Senator John Kerry possibly being in the White House one day. The old Tycoon
said, "Well, ya know, Kerry 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 bastard get down."

"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 bastard get down."

That describes Bush perfectly.

- He "made" his money by friends of Daddy giving it to him (to buy influence)
- He hid from real military service by one of Daddy's friends moving him ahead of 100 other people on a national guard waiting list. Then he went AWOL from even that service.
- He couldn't even testify by himself in front of the 9/11 commission, he needed Cheney there to keep the lies straight, even though he wasn't even honoirable enough to testify under oath.

Yep, it's bash the candidates instead of discuss the issues time.

Someone posted the same joke about Bush a couple weeks ago.
