War and Medicare not mentioned

As Mitt Romney accepted his party’s nomination for president, he failed to address the problems of Afghanistan and Medicare. Also left out of his speech were his plans for Social Security and illegal aliens.



 Left Unsaid

Social Security,
And Medicare;
Neither one mentioned
But both in the air;

Then, of course, there’s Iraq
And Afghanistan,
And illegal invaders
Against which is a ban.

To ignore all those problems,
To some folks is absurd;
Though candidate Romney
Didn’t utter a word.

He spoke of the budget,
And even abortion,
That he says he will conquer
In some sort of proportion.

He says he’s our savior
And vows not to renege;
All in all, what he promised
Was politically vague.
