I recall there was once a much longer list, but it has since been winnowed down to just three.

If I’m descended from my grandparents, why do I still have cousins? But the greater irony is that Walker will probably be the next Senator from Georgia.

I understand that Walker wrote a book about struggling to control his impulses to do harm to others and to himself. But I guess he’s given up the struggle and decided, instead, to apply these impulses in the US Senate.

If I descended from German Anabaptist farmers why are there still German Anabaptist farmers?
