We are now living in a State that is being run by an individual that has NO respect for the citizens he is working for. Remember, your money along with mine pay his wages, he is OUR employee. Last week in an interview in reference to his having a mural removed from the Department of Labor’s hallway, when a protestor mentioned peaceful protest when it came time, Lepage said, he would like to see the idiots try it.. This man is our Governor, granted the past one was no winner, but I refuse to let this individual call himself my Governor. His supporters say ‘look how well Marden’s turned out under his rule’..sorry folks but I live in the State of Maine, not some surplus salvage yard. NOW, over the weekend, Lepage had the mural removed because “citing complaints from several members of the public, including one who said the images were reminiscent of “communist North Korea, where they use these murals to brainwash the masses.” “ OK now, just how stupid does this dolt think the people of Maine really are!? “several members of the public’ were upset? Any wages that IF there were complaints it was some greasy wheels that walk the halls of Augusta and not the guy making minimum wages? He did not have the cajones to have it done when someone was around. This is not a democratic society we are dealing with here, and please save me the blah blah rehotoric of this it what Maine really needs. I thought Maine might stand a chance of becoming a progressive state…..nope, get back to work at Slate Rock and Gravel with Fred. It’s where we are all headed. .
I am almost embarassed to be a "Maineah"...this knuckle dragging excuse for a politician is making me wonder for what it is that this state is now standing! I felt sorry for Minnesota when they elected Jesse. He was a statesman compared to Fred!! How dare he remove a work of art on his own whim, or interpretation (interpretation requires a mind to interpret)! I may not find great art in a crucified Christ in Urine...but I will defence his right to his artistic freedom...operaive word FREEDOM! Take your knuckle-dragging worm knuckles off of our history, our art, and (wishful thinking) our State!!
