I know nothing of this state’s politics or finances. Is he setting up for a future higher office run? or is there really $2 billion in waste every year in Maine? or is he planning to make up some of the revenue in another way?

>> that’s my leverage,” LePage said

Wow, he understands the concept of LEVERAGE.

If we all kick in a couple bucks, maybe we can pay this dude to bitchslap some sense into Boner and McChinless.

A Republican with cojones? who da thunk it.....

If it’s not $2 billion, it’s still plenty ‘o waste. I love the guy, which greatly angers my relatives who still live there.

Best GOP governor in the USA know one knows about. He’s been excellent on nailing Maine “sanctuary cities” & all things liberal. He’s the real deal.

And yes, is that politics? I’m playing their game. I’m finally learning to play the game of the politician.”

LePage called Democrats’ actions this session “disturbing,” ‘’repugnant” and “disgraceful.” He pointed at Democratic House Leader Jeff McCabe, who attended the event, saying, “Shame on you.”

After the governor’s remarks, McCabe said LePage has come “a little bit unglued.”

Ok, I like how LePage is taking on the Dems.

I think the Dems are a bit afraid of him. LePage needs to give lessons on governing with power to Mcconnell and Boehner

I was working in ME for the last few months and every time I crossed the bridge it cost me four bucks just in income tax. I worked with a guy that had his wife's pay attached because she worked and lived in NH while he worked in ME and they filed a joint return to the feds.

LaPaige is a hero for working to get rid of tax slavery.

Good for LePage. Walker and LePage are showing Republican governors how it’s done.
