Maybe We have come to expect too much from our politicians.. or maybe we just ask too much of them and forget they are mere mortals as we are.

Once the mantles of power are placed upon their shoulders, many quickly forget who bestowed the electoral honor on them and responsibility for our way of life in their hands.

Some sell out, some wimp out,, some ,, well, they just get along to get along once they enter the shark tank we have allowed our government to become.

A lot of good men and women end up not being who we had hoped they would be or who they said they would be when they campaigned for their position.

All we can do is remind them whence comes their power and authority and who can take it away, maybe not tomorrow but soon enough.

A promise is a vow is a pledge,, and once broken, is not suffered well.

A government, once broken, is even more hard to endure.

Hang in there, my friend.

Thanks for the comments. I'm really tired of being disguested at our leaders all the time. I sure wish one with some intelligence and backbone would come along. I guess I'm just being unrealistic. Heh heh...
