"And 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," he said.There are so many new lows to be had in this interview, I don't quite know where to start.
The interview is in two parts, and the relevant quote is at the beginning of "Parte II". The whole quote is transcribed here:
Latino voters, the president said, would have an opportunity to send a message to Republicans, who Obama accused of "politicizing" immigration reform and the border security debate. Obama said "pressure has to be put on the Republican Party" if immigration reform is to become a reality.
Just keeping it classy... the Chicago way. (Transcript courtesy of The Hill.)
For a real hoot, listen to the whole interview, if you can stomach it. That the president of the United States would participate on a show like this is amazing. If the host had been wearing a clown nose the whole time I wouldn't be surprised.
And the intro to Obama... oh my heavens... The first few minutes of "Parte I" may be some of the most sycophantic moments in all of history. I promise you Kim Jong-Il is asking for the writer's CV as I type this.

FUBO
So if the illegals don’t vote...how are they going to punish his enemies.
They want to consider us enemies? No problemo.
Let The Battle of San Jacinto, Part Deaux begin!
Obama is actually saying that from now on, “Republicans/”Bitter clingers”/and other “Righties”, should be forced to sit in the “back of the bus”.
What was it that Hussein said at the beginning of his administration about taking up sticks or something against the people who opposed him?
In other words... bite the hand that is feeding you?
Rough translation: Shove it!
If Latinos don’t agree with him, he will turn on them also. Latinos have to ask themselves “What has he done for us?” The answer is “Nothing” and he never will. If they will side with the Republicans, they will be supported. If they turn on the Republicans, the people won’t forget.
How will they punish citizens? Stop undercutting legal workers? Stop drawing welfare? Stop sending their kids to schools we pay for? I do not see what they can do that will not hurt them worse than anybody else.
Most amigos I know (and trust me, I know plenty in S. Utah) want:
jobs
jobs
jobs
You know, same as the rest of us.
Epic Fail to the big guy.
I'm hazy on anything about sticks... I did provide a link to stories of him telling his supporters to bring a gun to a knife fight... the Chicago way.
Such an elegant post-racial healer of a leader.
THanks for posting this Anna, amazing that this is happening in AMerica!
Our president is telling FELLOW FOREIGN NATIONALS to punish the citizens of the US. Face it, he is not an American, he is the first non-indiginous president. I respectfully submit that it is not “awesome”, it is disgusting.

He is lower than scum.
Bump for later listen. Arguably it is worse than you posit.
Let's assume the conventional view that legal immigrants have little interest in an open borders immigration policy and therefore that O is not talking to them.
If that is valid then it appears at first glance he is encouraging illegals to corrupt our nation's political system by defrauding its election process.
Does such a covert act constitute an impeachable offense?
Almost certainly, under normal circumstances.
covert = overt
the c is because of the coffee I have not had.
