So yes, the office deserves respect even if you don't like/disagree with the man currently holding it.
Just my 2 cents....and worth less

My kids address all adults by mr/mrs...or yes sir no ma'am. Why? Because I have taught them that adults deserve respect. They don't "need" to know them.....
I think congress could learn a thing or two about respecting one another..... or maybe we are on our way to be the British House of Commons or the S Korean house where they get into fist fights?
Everyone has a right to believe what they wish. I respect your rights to do so.....

Agree 100%. In the military, members are taught to respect the rank, not the person. Same goes for the Office of the President.

King George was the most powerful man in the world in 1775, didn't show him much respect did we? I can name a few other adults who don't deserve much respect either. Not everyone deserves blind repect, it's earned.
Seriously, if you had a son, would you tell him to grow up and act just like Bill Clinton, because he was the president and one to emulate.

I originally posted that what was written was disrespectful to the President... I stated why. I am done with this....
To each their own......
