Harvey O at Keeping It Real has been holding his former colleagues feet to the fire and attempting to give them lessons on how to be a reporter. As we all know the mainstream media has become absolutely horrible in there reporting news of interest in BC. In fact I submit that there are virtually no investigative reporters in BC and the ones elevated to prominence by their bosses have become nothing but pimps for the present goons in power in Victoria.
So when this joke came to me in my inbox, and after I had read it I immediately asked the question "was it the MSM"
YOU'VE GOT TO LOVE THIS RANCHER'S OUTLOOK AND COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO LIFE .
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher, who's hand was caught in the gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually, the topic got around to Ignatieff and his bid to be the PM of Canada.
The old rancher said, 'Well, ya know, he's 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 the 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, and he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put him up there to begin with'.

Excellent, Gary E. This exactly my thoughts about Iggy, though I had never heard this metaphor before.
