respect...yourself

If you disrespect anybody

That you run in to

How in the world do you think

Anybody's s'posed to respect you(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

First it was Bachmann, then it was Perry, then it was, Gingrich, then it was Santorum, and now it is Obama, seems Mitt loves to disrespect anyone who gets in his way, not by saying how good Mitt can be or is but how bad the other guy was,and is.

If you don't give a heck 'bout the man

With the Bible in his hand

Just get out the way

And let the gentleman do his thing(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

You say you are a religious man, a devout man, a man of God, yet you enjoy deceiving, using lies as truth, saying Gods name but living to his will to help the poor, the elderly, the downtrodden. Mitt, your actions make me wonder if being a Mormon is more about being selfish then selfless. 

You the kind of gentleman

That want everything your way

Take the sheet off your face, boy

It's a brand new day(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

You want to brag about Bain as long as we don’t mention everything you did there like sending jobs off shore, firing people, closing plants. You say you are ready to discuss the hard questions, but any question about your taxes is too hard answer. 

Respect yourself, respect yourself

If you don't respect yourself

Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na

Respect yourself, respect yourself(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

You belittle people needing food stamps as welfare queens, the unemployed as lazy and you had no idea Gays have a family. Mitt, you cater to the ‘birthers’, the bigoted and the bogus. You disregard minorities and the rights of women to make a choice for their reproductive rights.

If you're walking 'round

Think'n that the world

Owes you something

'Cause you're here(“RespectYourself”, Staple Singers)

Mitt you want to be president of this country because of all things you and Ann declared its your turn. You have little in announcing why you want be president, but constantly scream about why others should not be the president. We are supposed to trust, so you say, but things like facts and fact checkers are of no importance to you and your campaign.

You goin' out

The world backwards

Like you did

When you first come here(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

The use of negative ads, the misuse of facts, the innuendo, the lack of substance, all of this give the feel of a candidate being ass backwards. Your arrogance that the American public should have access to your life is frustrating. Mitt you are running for president and not the new monarchy.

Keep talkin' 'bout the president

Won't stop evolution

Put your hand on your mouth

When you cough, that'll help the solution(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

You hide behind your surrogates who accuse the president of being a socialist, a Muslim, a Kenyan. You pretend to have no idea about your negative ads. You seem to think you can govern this country not on your merits but on a made up negative record of the president. Mitt, this election should be about your qualities not your abilities to weasel out of stating anything that sounds like the truth.

Oh, you cuss around women

And you don't even know their names

And you dumb enough to think

That'll make you a big ol man (“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

Your wife says she loves women but when it comes to questions of their equal pay for equal work, their abilities to decide the health of their bodies you cop out of granting the freedoms they deserve. You still have difficulty with the definition of rape and want to dismantle Planned Parenthood. Mitt women are not chattel.

Respect yourself, respect yourself

If you don't respect yourself

Ain't nobody gonna give a good cahoot, na na na na

Respect yourself, respect yourself

Respect yourself, respect yourself(“Respect Yourself”, Staple Singers)

I hear you are a good family man, a religious man, a businessman and yet your behavior in the public arena has demonstrated none of that. Your demeaning diatribes about Gays, Poor, Elderly, Immigrants, Muslims, Women demonstrate no respect for the people for whom you wish to be president. Your etch-a sketch never taking a stand, being for it before you are against then being for again is sick. Your attitude that your life is your business is bogus. Mitt as I see it and I hope and pray millions of Americans see it you will be a cohost on some stupid faux newscast on FOX. You can join the ranks of Mike Huckabee, and Sarah Palin two other politicians with no respect for the American people, and no respect for themselves!
