>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

>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

>she don't belong up there, she don't know what to do while she's up
