The laid-off Joe Soptic says Romney’s to thank
For his wife’s cancer death and his debts at the bank
But the skeptics sensed Soptic’s sob story was rank
And threw Soptic’s sob story into the septic tank
Joe was a steel man with a job at the mill
And made for himself a good living
But when hard times came the steel jobs were killed
And Joe Soptic’s most unforgiving
The laid-off Joe Soptic says Romney’s to thank
For his wife’s cancer death and his debts at the bank
But the skeptics sensed Soptic’s sob story was rank
And threw Soptic’s sob story into the septic tank
The mill where Soptic worked went right down the drain
And though Bain tried to turn it around
You can’t run a business with more loss than gain
So unemployed Joe himself found
Chorus
Five years later, sadly, doctors found Joe’s wife
Was suffering from cancer’s late stages
Right after diagnosis, she lost her life
And Joe felt that this was outrageous
Chorus
Joe set about looking for someone to blame
For the fact that his wife had to go
And decided it had all been the fault of Bain
And Mitt Romney, once Bain’s CEO
Chorus
Yes, Soptic blamed Romney, though Romney had left
Bain long before Joe’s plant was shuttered
A brief look shows that Joe’s story is quite bereft
Of any truth in what he uttered
Chorus
Joe Soptic says his wife was uninsured
And that’s what left her in a pickle
He could have put her on his plan, but demurred
In order to save a few nickels
Chorus
But Obama’s campaign, with a record of fail
Decided to smear their opponent
And used Soptic’s fabricated fairy tale
In hope that they could seize the moment
Chorus
Yes, Obama’s campaign has worked hard to retail
A story which they knew was truthless
But, when you must run on a record of fail
You see no downside to being ruthless
Chorus
One can—perhaps—pity Soptic for his lies
When he said Romney was to blame
But honest Americans all should despise
How Obama attacked Romney’s name
The laid-off Joe Soptic says Romney’s to thank
For his wife’s cancer death and his debts at the bank
But the skeptics sensed Soptic’s sob story was rank
And threw Soptic’s sob story into the septic tank
The Obama campaign is flushed with success.
How low can they go… how low can they…
NEVERMIND! That wasnt’ a challenge, O-bam.
Considering that Soptic deliberately lied about the availability of coverage, perhaps it should be officially renamed the soptic tank.
This is SO GOOD Buzz – right on target. I feel sorry for Soptic’s wife, but her death had NOTHING to do with Romney, except the Obama PAC thought they could get away with the lie.
Nice to see that Romney’s team is so quickly on top of things like this!
– rhyme with Coptic somewhere in there.
His rhyming “stages” with “outrageous” was all I needed to make my day!
Of course the commode in chif would get a despicable liar to make a despicable lying ad. I wonder how old Joe likes having America know what a digusting old man he is to betray his own wife’s memory.
– best.
One sad thing about Mr. Soptic, among others, is he knows Americans are on to his disingenous phony ad but he doesn’t really care. The double-digit I.Q. strikes again.
