Obviously gunning for the Trump VP slot.
Welcome to the post-PC world. 
Wow. Give this man a prime-time slot at the national convention. With those pithy one-liners, he should be a household name in no time.
Classy, guv. Trump-degree classy.
Commenting about this guyās assholery seems superfluous. If you want to take something constructive away from this story, you might want to consider how Americaās least popular and most divisive governors got elected, and then re-elected, in a very moderate state. This is what can happen when we have third and fourth party candidates who appeal beyond the fringe.
America is a 2 party country. Letās keep it that way. As tempting as it is to consider a 3rd party run when the primaries donāt go your way, donāt do. Just donāt. Remember the old: Fall in love in the primaries. Fall in line in the general.
Please donāt LePage the country.
He needs some ESL lessons. He canāt put two cogent sentences together.
Oddly enough Indians, having been ruled by the British for quite a long time, speak English very well. He has to be objecting to their accents. Like every other nasty prejudiced person in America.
When did Maine become the Mississippi of the north?
come on maine. you got to be kidding.
I didnāt notice it in TPM coverage, but LeFail vetoed a bill a few days ago that would allow dispensing of naloxone without a prescription. It can be used to treat heroin overdoses, which have become a very serious problem in Maine. If police, firefighters, and others who commonly come in contact with overdoes victims were able to administer the drug, fewer people will die.
LeFail vetoed the bill, because he thought it better that they die than to survive until the next overdose.
This is not exaggeration. His words, in the veto letter, were āNaloxone does not truly save lives; it merely extends them until the next overdoseā.
LeFail has previously pushed for large cuts in drug-treatment programs (which means loss of substantial Federal dollars) and failed to apply for supplemental Federal funding offered to states with especially severe problems.
His state and its residents are dying, and he thinks some incoherent version of tough love is the answer.
Edit to add:
The bill he vetoed was passed unanimously by voice vote, so LeFail stands out even against the background of an increasingly mean and crazy GOP.
Maineās Republican governor says itās hard to understand workers āfrom Bulgariaā and workers from India are āthe worst ones.ā
Thatās funny. Because Iām an American and I definitely donāt understand LePage. And I think heās one of the āworst onesā.
To her credit, Rachel covered this thoroughly the other night. It cannot be said enough that he was elected with 43% of the vote and so is not at all representative of his constituents. Heās an aberration, a crazy guy who canāt believe his luck in calling the shots in Maine and putting his racism and sexism on display whenever he wants to. Stephen King surely has enough material in LePage to write his next Maine-based book about him.
LePage should be familiar with Indian accents, all the times heās paid to have his computer fixed by the nice folks calling from Windows Technical Support.
Did he say who smells the funniest?
I think the reason he vetoed the bill is because he thought it would disproportionately benefit guys by the name of D-Money, Shifty and Smoothy.
LePage loves to telegraph his stupidity. Itās an obsession of hisā¦
My God heās right! The French Canadians are the worst ā¦ āback the boat aheadā is a classic.
Hey Eliot Cutler! Arenāt you glad you split the vote and let this asshole get elected twice?
Bingo!
