The Promise

Unkept political promises.

Still waiting for a promise

made in good faith.

Didn’t know the promise

was never meant to be kept.

The promise was hope

for a brighter tomorrow.

Everything would be different,

yet nothing has changed.

Should have known a man made

promise was just empty words,

worth nothing.

Sad but true politicans are lying SOB, and Ted Kennedy proved that over and over, They break promises, the want to take away our faith, and they think we are all stupid and will to follow. If we don’t make changes for ourselves, we will be the Jews during the holocaust, because we are allowing it to happen.
Very well written article
