Here’s something you may not know. Barack Obama, addressing primarily Latino voters last week, was quoted as saying, “…To rally to the aid of their political ‘Friends’ and to thwart their political ‘Enemies’.”
John Podesta, ex-president Bill Clinton’s White House chief of staff, even commented that a different word besides “Enemy” was more than appropriate. “Opposition”, maybe, or even “Those who don’t see things the way I, or we, do”, perhaps?
Republican Minority Leader, John Boehner, had this to say, “You know, when President Bush, President Reagan, President Clinton and George W. Bush used the word enemies, they were referring to global terrorism or dictators around the world who hated freedom and hated America. For the president to use that word about people who oppose bigger government, people who are freedom loving and love our Constitution, I tell you I find that very appalling," he said.
"Mr. President, I've got a word for those people who oppose you're policies, those people who love our country and Constitution, who love freedom and the principles America was founded on. You know what I call them? Not enemies. They're patriots.”
Tomorrow is the day. I haven’t been this excited since the Saints went to the Super Bowl last year. Get out and vote and let’s get closure on where America’s voice stands. Polls will be put to the test tomorrow and voter turnout will be potentially record-breaking. To not have a voice in this epoch moment in American politics is a disappointment every registered voter should avoid.
