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 Sarah Palin and her bid to be a heartbeat away from being President.
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 and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a post turtle.’
The old rancher saw a 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, she doesn’t know what to do while she is up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put her up there to begin with:

A little song:
You’ve already heard it a hundred times. Sarah Palin says she opposed the, “Bridge to Nowhere,” but as Charlie Gibson recently pointed out, she was for the Bridge before she was against it. Well, facts don’t matter in a presidential campaign, so Palin’s been repeating the story at every public appearance. She seems to have forgotten about a little invention called the video camera.

So today I heard that Caribou Barbie cancelled her upcoming appearance at a fundraiser here in Washington State.
Well.
Thanks for making the days a little less exciting, a little drabber- thanks for NOTHING Caribou Barbie.
You could have brought joy and excitement to the people of Washington State-
we could have organized rallies and invited young people who can’t afford to go to College and working Moms and Single Dads and all of people who are losing their homes to show up and wave signs around with your name on it to tell us what they think you could do bring to the Country- should God forbid- anything happen to John McInsanity McCain.
We even could have held fundraisers like bake sales where the main prize at the Silent Auction could have been a giant cake that looks like a Bridge and little cupcakes under it shaped like the Exxon Valdez.
And as a way to involve everyone across the state we could have held a series of charity Hockey games ( and not told the people who actually owned the Ice Rinks we were showing up…sort of like what you did with that sports center in Wasilla ) and everyone who played- even the guys- could have worn lipstick and helmets shaped like dogs heads.
The highlight of your visit could have been your entrance.
For your grand entrance we could have had little kids a dressed up like Polar Bears and three legged wolves running around screaming, ” The Mavericks are Coming, The Mavericks are Coming! ” as you raced your way down the street after them on a Snowmachine while wearing an Alaskan Independence Party T-Shirt and your husband’s name written on your forhead in red sharpie pen.
Those are such great ideas Caribou Barbie, it’s a shame that we can’t….
Nero was said to have played a violin ( in reality if he played anything it was probably a lyre- or he sang- after all,according to legend, he was bonkers ) while Rome burned.
Bush and McCain ate cake while Americans drowned in New Orleans- and they smiled as they did it.
Guess which scenerio I find to be far more creepy?
According to some map on CNN Washington State is ‘ up for grabs ‘ because all of us out here in the Pacific Northwest are SO in love with Caribou Barbie.
So here’s some insight from:
a woman
who is from Washington State
and can take a joke- which is what this survey must have been:
Okay CNN guys…good one but here are some facts about Washington State-
First of all:
The last time we had a Republican Governor was in 1980 and the last time our state went to a Republican Presidential candidate was in 1984. I doubt if we would entertain the thought of supporting a Republican candidate like McCain who has to date told 52 whopping bigliesthat are now plastered all over Youtube and the internet and his VP Pick Chickwho thinks that being able to see Russia from her back yard counts as Foreign Policy Experience.
Washington state has given things to the world like Jimmy Hendrix, Mount St. Helens and the Lady Washington– that bitchin’ ship that was used in the Star Trek Movie ” Generations ” as well as the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies
and
FYI one of the ” Founding Fathers ” of Seattle was a woman named Lou Graham – she was a Madam.
Like Frank Sinatra said, we do it our way in Washington State.
We’re not going to get into lockstep with a bunch of Republicans from Alaska. I’m not saying anything bad about Alaska but Hell the reality is, we’re not even in lockstep with the Eastern half of our own state.
So whatever it was they were drinking at CNN when they came up with that factoid- share it with the rest of us.
I’m a fan of the show ” Burn Notice “- Burn Notice is a show about spies- anyway- what I’ve learned from that show is that when you want to hide something or someone
the best place to hide it is in plain sight.
So with all this talk about how McCain arrived at the decision to chose Sarah ” Caribou Barbie ” as his VP I followed that pointer and lo and behold found McCain’s reasons for chosing Caribou Barbie all over the internet…
