A rancher is talking about politics with a young man from the city. He compares a politician to a “post turtle.” The young man doesn’t understand and asks him what’s a post turtle.
The rancher says, “When you’re driving down a country road and you see a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a post turtle.”
“You know he didn’t get up there by himself. He doesn’t belong there. He can’t get anything done while he’s up there. You just want to help the poor, dumb thing down.”
