The Post Turtle

The Post Turtle

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.

Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his bid to be our President.

The old rancher said, "Well, ya know, Obama 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 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 up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just want to help the dumb ass get down."

Fellow Freepers, one of the things that I think is most unwise is underestimating our opponents. Liberals and commies that I have known were often educated, intelligent, creative, clever, totally devoted to their cause, and RUTHLESS. Obama is a brilliant lawyer, speaker, and politician with incredible charisma. He has carefully hidden his near-Marxist opinions and policy prescriptions. If we want to defeat this guy, it will take everything we’ve got in terms of time, funding, perseverance, and devotion to our cause.

Is it OK if we laugh at him too?

Yes, it’s a shame we conservatives don’t have an actual candidate to oppose Obama.

I'm with you on that. This would be a hell of a lot more fun if Fred was our candidate.

Amen. That’s why Rush was smart to try to subvert Obama’s candidacy and sow discord among the Demonrat ranks. Let the Demons’ own campaign funds be used to weaken him and Hillary at the same time. I remember 1964, when Goldwater was already crippled by the savage, treasonous attacks on him by the country club Rockefeller “Republicans” during the primary campaign. Then the lib Pubbies didn’t support him during the general election, either.

Stop me... if you've heard this one!

A young Texas cowboy goes off to Texas A&M, but halfway through the semester, he has foolishly squandered all his money on gals and booze.

He calls home. "Dad," he says, "You won't believe what modern education is developing! They actually have a program here in Missoula that will teach our dog, Ol' Blue, how to talk!"

"That's amazing," his Dad says. "How do I get Ol' Blue in that program?"

"Just send him down here with $1000," the young cowboy says."I'll get him in the course."

So, his father sends the dog and $1,000. About two-thirds through the semester, the money again runs out. The boy calls home.

"So how's Ol' Blue doing, son?" his father asks.

"Awesome, Dad, he's talking up a storm," he says, "but you just won't believe this - they've had such good results they have started to teach the animals how to read!"

"Read!" says his father, "No kidding! How do we get Blue in that program?"

"Just send $2,500, I'll get him in the class."

The money promptly arrives. But our hero has a problem. At the end of the year,his father will find out the dog can neither talk, nor read. So he gives away the dog to a pretty young thing he'd been sparking.

When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father is all excited. "Where's Ol' Blue? I just can't wait to see him read something and talk!"

"Dad," the boy says, "I have some grim news. Yesterday morning,just before we left to drive home, Ol' Blue was in the living room, kicked back in the recliner, reading the Wall Street Journal, like he usually does.

Then he turned to me and asked, "So, is your daddy still messin' around with that little redhead waitress at the Dairy Queen?"

The father exclaimed, "I hope you shot that sumbitch before he talks to your Mother!"

"I sure did, Dad!"

"That's my boy!"

Today, that cowboy is now the Governor of Texas, Rick Perry.

The moral of this story is when we hear... Obama saying he didn't hear Reverend Wright preach any of those anti-American, White Race hating sermons, we got to force him to trot out Ol'Blue so we all can hear that old dog read aloud. Otherwise, Barack may get elected!

I’ll have to go see if that DQ is still in Paint Creek the next time I’m driving out toward West Texas. I have a weakness for redheads.

Well, speaking... just for myself--

Redheaded gals are just... so damn clean!

And us redheaded guys... have our little secrets, too!

When I was a cosmetologist I once won a 2nd place contest using a redheaded model.

Re: When I was a cosmetologist I once won a 2nd place contest using a redheaded model

Was it a real redhead you used... or one of them "I Love Lucy" bottle redheads?

Before this thread goes one post further... I want it known for a fact that no self-respecting redhead would ever enter "a 2nd place contest." We 'honest to God' natural redheads play to win and only to win!

That's a fact! And I've had a red crown... since I left the egg!
