Meet Maine's New Governor

              Meet Maine's New Governor 

                 

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.

             THE LAW IS THE LAW!

 I  really love this one. This is one of the better e-mails I have received in a  long time! I hope this makes its way around the USA several times  over!!!!!

So,  Be It!

THE  LAW IS THE LAW So "if" the U S government determines that it is against the  law for the words "under God" to be on our money, then, so be  it.

And  "if" that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments" are not to be  used in or on a government installation, then, so be  it.

I  say, "so be it," because I would like to be a law abiding US  citizen.

I  say, "so be it," because I would like to think that smarter people than I  are in positions to make good decisions.

I  would like to think that those people have the American public's best  interests at heart.

 

BUT,  YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?

 

Since  we can't pray to God, can't Trust in God and cannot post His Commandments in  Government buildings, I don't believe Government (Federal, State and Local)  and its employees should participate in Easter and Christmas celebrations  which honor the God that our government is eliminating from many facets of  American life.

I'd  like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter.  After all, it's just another day.

I'd  like the" US Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday,  Thanksgiving & Easter as well as Sundays." After all, it's just another  day.

I'd  like the Senate and the House of Representatives to not have to worry about  getting home for the "Christmas Break." After all it's just another  day.

 

I'm  thinking a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government  offices & services would work on Christmas, Good Friday & Easter. It  shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like any other day of  the week to a government that is trying to be "politically  correct."

In  fact....I think our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside  for worshipping God....) because, after all, our government says that it  should be just another day....

What  do you all think???? If this idea gets to enough people, maybe our elected  officials will stop giving in to the "minority opinions" and begin, once  again, to represent the "majority" of ALL of the American  people.

 

SO  BE IT...........Please Dear Lord, Give us the help needed to keep you in our  country! 'Amen' and 'Amen' Touché!

These  are definitely things I never thought about but from now on, I will be sure  to question those in government who support these  changes.

At  the top, it says, "I hope this makes its way around the USA several  times over!!!!!" Let's see that it does.
