Tami Taylor has such sass and we just love it! Nashville star Connie Britton is yet another Friday Night Lights alum to come forward slamming Mitt Romney for his use of "Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can't Lose." A fan favorite from her critically acclaimed NBC hit. Britton and executive producer Sarah Aubrey have published an op-ed piece together in USA Today, concentrating particularly on how much Planned Parenthood was represented in the series.
Some of it reads:
Romney actually wants to throw the entire law -- and every benefit -- out, and while he's at it, get rid of Planned Parenthood—the health care provider that nearly three million Americans rely on for their life-saving cancer screenings, well-woman visits and affordable birth control. Planned Parenthood was well represented on the show, too -- Brian "Smash" Williams' mom worked there, Tami got a pregnancy test there, and, after being abandoned by her parents, Becky Sproles was able to get a safe and legal abortion there.
So as women, let's take "Clear Eyes, Full Hearts" back and use it as it was always intended -- as a motivator for progress, power, and greatness. Let's use our clear eyes and full hearts to vote early. Let's use our clear eyes and full hearts to tell every friend, family member and neighbor about what's at stake for women in this election. What's at stake for all of us.

The letter follows just a few weeks after showrunner Jason Katims called Romney out for plagiarizing the powerful line all of us have come to love. Katims' piece can be seen in The Hollywood Reporter.
