Subject: Fw: Meet Maine 's New Governor

My kinda guy!


Don't know if you have seen this before but the Gov tells
it the way it should be.

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 andAcadia 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 sence.

THE LAW IS THE LAW So "if" the US 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!!!!!" Let's see that it does.=

Sound like he's going to do his best to fix exactly whats wrong with this country!
