My kind of governor !!

I verified this with a friend who lives in Maine.

Meet Maine's New Governor ---

In case you haven't heard about this guy before, his name will stick
in your mind!
The new Maine Governor, Paul LePage is making New Jersey’s Chris
Christie look like an enabler. He isn't afraid to say what he thinks.
Judging by the comments, every time he opens his mouth, his popularity
goes up.

He brought down the house at his inauguration when he shook his fist
toward the media box and said, "You're on notice! I've inherited a
financially-troubled State to run. Observe...cover what we do...but
don't whine if I don't waste time responding to your every whim just
for your amusement."

During his campaign for Governor, he was talking to commercial
fishermen who are struggling because of federal fisheries rules. They
complained that 0bama brought his family to Bar Harbor and Acadia
National Park for a long Labor Day holiday and found time to meet with
union leaders, but wouldn't talk to the fishermen. LePage replied,
"I'd tell him to go to hell and get out of my State." The Lame Stream
Media crucified LePage, but he jumped 6 points in the pre-election
poll.

The Martin Luther King incident was a political sandbag which brought
him National exposure. The 'lame stream' media crucified him, but word
on the street is very positive. The NAACP specifically asked LePage to
spend MLK Day visiting black inmates at the Maine State Prison. He
told them that he would meet with ALL inmates, regardless of race, if
he were to visit the prison. The NAACP balked and then put out a news
release claiming falsely that he refused to participate in any MLK
events. He read it in the paper for the 1st time the next morning
while being driven to an event and went ballistic because none of the
reporters had called him for comment before running the NAACP release.

He arrived at that event & said in front of a TV camera, "If they want
to play the race card on me they can kiss my ass", and he reminded
them that he has an adopted black son from Jamaica and that he
attended the local MLK Breakfast every year that he was mayor of
Waterville. (He started his morning there on MLK Day.)

He then stated that there's a right way and a wrong way to meet with
the Governor, and he put all special interests on notice that press
releases, media leaks, and all demonstrations would prove to be the
wrong way. He said any other group which acted like the NAACP could
expect to be at the bottom of the Governor's priority list!

He then did the following, and judging from local radio talk show
callers, his popularity increased even more: The State employees union
complained because he waited until 3 P.M. before closing State offices
and facilities and sending non-emergency personnel home during the
last blizzard. The prior Governor would often close offices for the
day with just a forecast before the first flakes. (Each time the State
closes for snow, it costs the taxpayers about $1 million in wages for
no work in return.)

LePage was CEO of the Marden's chain of discount family bargain retail
stores before election as governor. He noted that State employees
getting off work early could still find lots of retail stores open to
shop. So, he put the State employees on notice by announcing: "If
Marden's is open, Maine is open!"

He told State employees: "We live in Maine in the winter, for heaven's
sake, and should know how to drive in it. Otherwise, apply for a State
job in Florida !"

Governor LePage symbolizes what America needs; Refreshing politicians
who aren't self-serving and who exhibit common sense
Sounds like someone we could use running this country!

Maine politicians....can anyone REALLY trust them? After all two of the biggest RINOS are in the SENATE from Maine. They might as well change party affiliations and sit with the Socialists. So, due to their reputations, it's hard for me to trust Gov LePage.

Even though Rick Perry doesn't sound sincere necessarily about embracing the Tea Party agenda...he sure is making mouths on the left foam up....and anybody who makes their mouths foam up, is someone I can support. After all he is an ex-Socialist...and once a Socialist, always a Socialist.

Texanatplay supports socialists with foam coming out of their mouths. Great to see you are a BBBG supporter and feed your people protein. LOL

I like LePage! But I do not care for Douchbags.
