Remember one Sunday at church when I was a very small girl fidgeting and bored until the cowboy from Montana got up to the pulpit to give his talk.
He was tall and dark, wore a bolo tie, cowboy boots and talked with the classic western drawl apologizing that he wasn't good with words.
He pulled out a deck of cards and proceeded to do some real fancy card tricks (don't think that didn't get everybody's attention). And then told the "Cowboy's Deck of Cards."

He ended with saying a few words that have stayed with me my whole life:
"My momma didn't have much learnin', but she was a good woman and taught us good. She said son, you'll only go through your whole life with two people: yourself and God. So be good to them both."
After all these years, I have never forgotten those words of truth.

President Bush is indeed a cowboy.
