Quit just reading off the video monitor for once and listen to yourself
Dump
the prepared text that you did not write and don’t understand
Stop
parroting memorized answers to scripted softball questions
Speak
for yourselves, you flashy little charlatan’s puppets
Get
off of the message they have paid your handlers to have you preach
Quit
letting them use information for power and control through your office
Stop
with the phony excuses about not commenting on ongoing investigations
Write
your own fracking speeches or don’t bother speaking at all
Fire
your pathetic spokesman and answer some real questions yourself
Stop
endlessly babbling the sound bites made up by contract sloganeers
Don’t
quote the drivel they made up for your appointees as if it were gospel
After
every speech at least give credit and thanks to the writer, by name
Stop
starring in marketeers campaigns aimed at firming up the poll numbers
Quit
letting them plant leaks that they then tell you to neither confirm nor deny
Don’t
remain deliberately ignorant in order to innocently spread disinformation
Answer
some real questions without the aid of a teleprompter
Enough
of starring as a fictional character just to disseminate their propaganda
Give
up the preaching tones that helped you overcome substance abuse
Be
able to understand it, pronounce it and spell it or simply don’t say it
Don’t
take more phony applause for stirring phrases you did not make up
Quit
talking like you know these people you just met five minutes ago
Stop
memorizing those lists of slogans, homilies and catch phrases
Enough
of winking out watchwords and code talk on queue
Drop
the mealy-mouthed intonation that ‘God Bless America’ completely
Step
out from behind the image they push of you to make the poll numbers
Speak
for yourself to real reporters in unstaged press conferences
Don’t
think that staying on message somehow turns bullshit turn into truth
Quit
sounding so stupid just because that was the way they explained it to you
Stop
going before controlled audiences who cheer and wave upon queue
Take
time out from talking with jesus to come up with a speech of your own
Quit
letting them make you up, pick out your tie and warm up the crowd
Speak for yourself to the people instead of to the
camera for your sponsors
