Such a 'why' that comes to mind this time of year with the mess we find ourselves in as a government and a nation is: Why do we both individually and as a nation spend more and end up with less? Perhaps some of the questions Mike Wallace said he would ask President George W.
Bush...
if Bush would allow an Interview would provide the answer.
Lets pretend such an interview is taking place on Sixty minutes Mike Wallace, "Mr.
President, since your background tells us you apparently were incurious.
You didn't want to travel.
You knew very little about the military; as the governor of Texas didn't have the kind of power that some governors have.
.
'Why' in world do you think you are prepared you to be the commander in chief of the largest superpower in the world?".
.
.
Perhaps, a more pertinent question as the result of the first, we the voters need to ask is 'why' was he nominated and more impotently, 'why oh why' did we vote for him? .
.
.
Last but not least, 'why' would we as a nation nominate and vote for a man who with his brother was instrumental in bringing about the 'savings and loan fiasco".
A "fiasco" we are still paying for.
Perhaps, as Martin Luther King had the guts to say about the Vietnam War, we should be asking Mr.
Bush "Why is this not the wrong war, at the wrong time, in the wrong place?" Now in conclusion I ask you! "' Do you think maybe the 'why's' asked in these series of questions provides us with many of the answers or fact as to why we, "our country", is in the mess were in.
