Vetting Refugees

Our President assured us that "they", will all be cleared "You're safe here in America there's nothing to be feared" Vetting may not help us much Where, were the Passports made? Did they buy them on the street? Or, from someone in the shade? Takes an Expert with a "sense" to spot the "Real McCoy" Those that land here, and are passed won't make you "jump for joy" Just one, out of one thousand that's all they really need To recruit "those with bitterness" that's how they'll plant the "seed" Then, one after another they're sure to slowly grow And take in "those without a life" when it's "too late", you'll know With no ID to start with how have they all been cleared? Our President assured us there's nothing to be feared.....

It's a scary thought. I feel for the true refugees and want to help them, but it is a very real threat that a terrorist can sneak through. Sorry to say I don't trust our President. A thought provoking write, Pete! Love, Kim
