um.. I might be wrong in a few cases, but in general, google and other search engines have no problem with that type of url. (The part after the ? is called the "query" as i recall). The exception to this is when you add a session id to the end of the url. This is normally a bunch of random letters/numbers (exe: ?sid=k01f4e24as2d) and would be used to track a user across a website when cookies weren't avialable. Becuase this session id would change on every page load, this would generate an infinate series of loops for a search engine, and therefore they won't spider the page.
About mod_rewrite.. my favorite part of the apache manual is this:

Sorry, mod_rewrite is crazy for me too.. takes me forever to accomplish anything whenever i try to use it.
Good luck!
