Questions

They never stop in life...questions that is. I always seem to have them and often times they don't really matter much. Why does a cow have six stomachs? What is the function of six stomachs? Why must the leaves of trees be green and not say red or purple? Why do spiders seem to love the space in my windows between the screen and the glass pane? What exactly is it about the Pledge duster that cuts my dusting time in half? I agree, all pretty useless but there none the same.

Then there are those questions that matter. How do I instill a sense of self in my children that will not often be hijacked? How can people actually trust our government again? What positive difference can I make in the life of someone today? How can the educational system be changed from the liberal thought factory it is today? How many "but God" passages are there in the Bible? (Okay this last one might fall into the previous paragraph, but then again when a phrase from Scripture jumps out a person there is usually a reason for it.) And just today I looked up a question I had after a commentator said they didn't think a governor had enough experience to become President of the United States. Did you know that 16 state governors have gone on to become President; including Teddy Roosevelt, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, FDR, Calvin Coolridge, Woodrow Wilson, Ronald Reagan, the not-so-illustrous Bill Clinton, and President GW Bush. That is about 37% of our Presidents that have been governors first. Exactly what kind of experience is considered "good enough" to be President? Having been one before?
