Gov. Paul LePage says 127th Legislature is horrendous

Source: Sun Journal

Gov. Paul LePage said Tuesday that the 127th Legislature, which finished most of its business early Saturday morning, is “the worst since I’ve been governor.”

“It’s just horrendous,” said LePage on his weekly appearance on WVOM radio.

At the top of a list of gripes from LePage was enactment of a major rewrite of Maine’s solar energy policy, which would add 196 megawatts of solar energy to the state’s energy portfolio by 2020. That’s nearly 10 times as much solar energy in the grid in Maine today. Proponents also argued that the bill would help diversify Maine’s energy portfolio and create hundreds of jobs.

However, LePage and other opponents of the bill contend that it will increase electricity rates for all Mainers. LePage lashed out at Republicans in the Senate, where support for the bill was unanimous.

and he was looking at 4 lanes aimed at him at a stop light.
"You're going the wrong way" said my mother.
"No I am not. They are" said my dad.

Mr. LePage seems to be headed in the wrong direction, or everybody else is. My bet is that it is LePage.

LePage is a racist, misogynistic, homophobic, Islamophobic, climate change denying idiot. Apparently the only thing to which he is well disposed is Der Donald.

if he attended any classes in lets say grade school and going forward, would have been told and have it explained to him, unless he had is head buried in some racists book, that the "Sun" is a free source of energy, so to help him understand this lets do this for him, with a list and a song:


And just for giggles this list doesn't have a category for racist behind the name, unless they make it #69................
