President Obama has nothing but "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" for the women of soul, even if he accidentally misspelled the title of Aretha Franklin's signature anthem.
In an "oops" moment tonight, the president dropped a letter when paying tribute to the one and only Franklin at the White House concert series event, "In Performance at the White House: Women of Soul."

The media moves on.....
Dan Quayle, anyone?
Got hypocrisy?
Don;r forget he also said that there was 57 STATES and they never called him on that!! And when he said “my Muslim faith” Georgie Steppy reminded him that he was a Christian!!!
"As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden."
I bet he could spell it perfectly in Arabic, Farsi or whatever Islamic language he learned in Indonesia.
Is he on drugs?
Can’t spell respect?
Then there was the time the Smartest Man On Earth signed his name in the VIP guestbook at Westminster Abbey, and wrote down the wrong year.
More importantly, the gaff manifests he isn’t from an American black culture. Even if given a teleprompter, any normal American, especially from a black culture would likely recite the spelling from recall of the song’s lyrics and melody.

Guys, guys, guys.....We have to look at his INTENT and his EFFORT, and not his actual spelling. I bet he worked really, really hard and tried to get it right, but even though it wasn’t spelled properly, we could understand what he was trying to say, and that will be sufficient. signed, the National Education Association (NEA)
The next time the media shows that it practices the double standard, are we going to jump all over them?
Dan Quayle.
G.W. Bush.
Mitt Romney.
Democrats and other insane individuals are given a free pass to misspell, get the number of states wrong, and to rape and sexually harass interns in the oval office.
But...isn’t that the way it is spelled in the Austrian language?
Not surprising that the zero would misspell respect, since he isn’t deserving of a smidgen of respect.
