"Punish Your Enemies"

According to Luke Matthews at redstate.com:

This is beyond the pale. For an American president to join these three words together and utter them with passion to a portion of the electorate is just plain dangerous. For the person who represents all of the American people, not just Democrats, liberals, or hyphenated Americans, to say to a specific group these three words is bordering on maniacal.

“Punish Your Enemies”

In a radio interview that aired on Univision on Monday, Mr. Obama sought to assure Hispanics that he would push an immigration overhaul after the midterm elections, despite fierce Republican opposition.

“If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, ‘We’re gonna punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us,’ if they don’t see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it’s gonna be harder and that’s why I think it’s so important that people focus on voting on November 2.”

Referring specifically to Republicans such as Senator John McCain, who are stressing border security and supporting strict immigration laws like Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration measure, Mr. Obama said, “Those aren’t the kinds of folks who represent our core American values.”

Obama wasn't calling Al-Qaeda, the Taliban or Osama bin Laden the "ENEMY". . . .He is talking about AMERICANS that oppose his socialist policies. . . .OMG his administation calls the "Global War on Terrorism" an "Overseas Contingency Operation" and a "Terrorist Attack" a "Man-Caused Disaster", but Americans that oppose his leftist agenda are the "ENEMY". . . .Are you kidding me?. . . .Someone please wake me up from this nightmare. . . .
