Will the Real Mitt Romney Please Stand Up

Ich bin baff, wie unglaublich gut Hugh Atkin dieses Video gelungen ist. Aus Ausschnitten aus Reden von und über den Frontrunner für die republikanische US-Präsidentschaftskandidatur Mitt Romney hat Atkin einen stark an Eminem angelehnten Rapsong zusammengeschnitten. Dabei schafft er es nicht nur, trotz des Geschnippsels einen gewissen "Flow" entstehen zu lassen, sondern er baut auch noch wunderbar ein paar der verachtenswertesten Zitate des Multimillionärs und ehemaligen Private-Equity-Heuschrecklings einzubauen:

"I'm not concerned about the very poor."

 "I'm more concerned about the banks"

 "I like being able to fire people"

 Den kompletten Text gibt es, zusammen mit dem Video, nach dem Sprung.

Can I have your attention please.
Can I have your attention please.
Will the real Mitt Romney please stand up.
I repeat. Will the real Mitt Romney please stand up.
We're gonna have a problem here.
Y'all act like you haven't seen a Mormon before.
Jaws down on the floor.
I'm not concerned about the very poor.
Got it wrong. Sorry. That's not what I meant.
I want every American to be in the top one percent.
I'm really named Willard. That's my first name.
I'm not looking for a colony on the moon. Just for someone to blame.
I like being able to fire people.
"I'm Newt Gingrich." You're fired.
"I'm Rick Santorum and I'm...." Fired
Boom. Boom. Boom.
"Conservative women love Mitt Romney." And I love cars and I love lakes.
I'm running or office for Pete's sake.
With regards to abortion. Pro-life? Pro-choice?
I firmly believe in my own singing voice.

For purple mountains' majesty, above the fruited plain.
"Where were we at John?"

Uh... with regards to abortion... uh....
You can choose your own adventure.
It's a Republican dementia.
And I'm more concerned about the banks: they're unable to lend.
Corporations are people my friend.
My dog is on the roof. My dog is on the roof.
Who let the dogs out? Who? Who?
Understand I'm an exception. The Obama contraception.
Not a vulture, I'm an eagle.
Look I'm gonna get my lawn cut by illegals.
There will be an influx. Hispanic voters in trucks.
Look, if you don't believe, I'll tell you what, ten thousand bucks?
Well, I made a lot of money matter of factually.
I drive a couple of Cadillacs actually.
I have emotion and passion. That's a joke for the record.
But if you want the soul of America restored,
Come on board. Take your fair share and every
Mormon wave your underwear.
Sing the chorus, papa bear.

I'm Mitt Romney. Yes, I'm the real Romney.
All the other Mitt Romneys are just mass debating.
So would the real Mitt Romney please stand up, please stand up, please stand up.

I'm Mitt Romney. Yes, I'm the real Romney.
All the other Mitt Romneys are just mass debating.
So would the real Mitt Romney please stand up, please stand up, please stand up.
