National Association of Police Organizations endorse Obama\Biden

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2008/09/22/politics/fromtheroad/entry4467606.shtml

(BALTIMORE) - Joe Biden and the Obama campaign received the endorsement of the National Association of Police Organizations this morning, a group that represents over 2,000 police organizations across the United States.

NAPO president Tom Nee congratulated Biden by phone and promised the organization would support Barack Obama candidacy for president.

“It’s my great honor this morning to pledge to you and to commit to you the support of 287,000 police officers from around the country,” said Nee.

“Joe, I gotta tell you too, man to man, we’ve been very good friends and you’ve worked so very hard on behalf of the American people for a very long period of time. We know we can count on you,” Nee added.

2. This is a good endorsement for the law and order voter
I'm really glad McCain didn't get this one.

8. NAPO
Great Endorsement.Remember the Clinton crime bill that a thousand new Police on the street was
heavily the work of Biden.Obama picked a VP who worked to get more to police and to help woman
who are abused while Mccain picks a VP who wants to fire State Police officcials who won't do her bidding and then defame them.

9. Super, NAPO supports reinstating the Assault Weapons Ban. That will get the attention of 80 million
gun-owners.
