The president said: “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 going to be harder. And that’s why I think it’s so important that people focus on voting on November 2nd.”
In remarks prepared for delivery to a rally in Cincinnati with Rob Portman, the GOP nominee for Senate in Ohio, and John Kasich, the GOP nominee for Ohio governor, Boehner says:
“Ladies and gentlemen, we have a president in the White House who referred to Americans who disagree with him as ‘our enemies.’ Think about that. He actually used that word. When Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush used the word ‘enemy,’ they reserved it for global terrorists and foreign dictators — enemies of the United States. Enemies of freedom. Enemies of our country.
“Today, sadly, we have president who uses the word ‘enemy’ for fellow Americans — fellow citizens. He uses it for people who disagree with his agenda of bigger government — people speaking out for a smaller, more accountable government that respects freedom and allows small businesses to create jobs.

more phony outrage for political points. How many times has he stood up against those on his side of the aisle claiming the pres. is an enemy of america or some kind of foreign secret muslim terrorist?
How many times did we hear "If your not with us, your against us" that was always the Bush answer.
How about Colorado's governor saying Obama is "more of a threat to our nation than Al Qaeda"??? That's ok? But Obama's comments (metaphors) were out of line? You're out of your mind if you think that.
Anytime, the President of the United States Refers to a group of citizens in this country as enemies, that President should be removed from office!
That statement by Obama was UNACCEPTABLE!
