huff and puffs legacy

like all the nay sayers that bamboozle the electorate gov la pue will leave a legacy of "why the right can't govern". he is proving daily that he is not his own man-more and more of his agenda is the same bullchit that the maine majority and
and their ilk have tried to plant on the local tv/talk show. Including the ins bit.
Of course you can get cheaper ins but you lose coverage. here is the pinnacle of stupidity -he is spieling about jobs bill while his deeds are quite the opposite-or as known in the trade bamboozle them with bullchit while you knife them in the back!
The results are irrefutable. According to the U.S. Commerce Department reports, Maine was the only New England state to go backward in 2011. The only one. We lost ground.

Maine's economy shrank while the rest of... the nation's grew -- including that of our New England neighbors. In the last year alone, Maine ranked 45th in the nation for wages and dead last for personal income growth. We aren't ...going forward, we're going backward.

Republicans have made it harder to live and work in Maine. Their draconian cuts and sound bite solutions aren't working. And instead of assisting Maine's economy, their bills and numerous budgets have attacked working people and middle-class families.

It is true: "We can no longer afford to pass up any economic opportunity for our state."

here is the facts quite the opposite of his meeting!
more to follow! ck it out mike ur leader sucks!

Once again the governor proves he deserves the nick name"huff and puff" you see his agenda was "job creation" while hid deed shut down jobs at the facility he was speaking at.
Once again who is stalling the recovery? who is stalling job creation?

BRUNSWICK, Maine - Gov. Paul LePage says he is holding off on issuing $40 million in bonds approved by voters.

The decision affects various projects from ferry and railroad improvements to upgrades to the University of Maine System to expansion plans at Southern Maine Community College.
...
LePage said he is refusing to issue those new bonds because it would be fiscally irresponsible right now.

On Wednesday LePage visited the new Southern Maine Community College at Brunswick Landing, a day after making the bond announcement.

He toured the campus, seeing two of the buildings that are finished and three others that are not complete.

Southern Maine Community College President Ron Cantor said he was stunned by the governor's decision. The school would have received $4.7 million to complete the Brunswick Landing expansion.

"We are quickly trying to look at how much we spend, how much is left, and I don't have the exact answers as to if anything will have to be slowed down or stopped or anything like that. What I do know is that we do not have funds to finish the rest of our buildings," said Cantor.

The goal of the governor's visit on Wednesday was to talk about job creation and how to better market Maine. LePage did not want to answer questions about the bonds.

AS YOU CAN SEE BY HOLDING UP THE BONDS HE HAS HELD UP THE COMPLETION OF 3 BUILDINGS!
tell me ole huff and puff by holding up those bonds until 2014 how you are creating jobs,saving me tax money,creating a more educated work force or keeping these 3 buildings that are already under construction from damage by setting for 2 years? OLE GREAT LEADER COMMON SENSE SEEMS TO BE YOUR WEAKER SUIT! The whole purpose of "brunswick landing " is to create jobs! and you just pulled the boner of the year by cutting the income tax by 1% which cut 400 million from revenue and then stating we need money? I mean really who do you represent ? the maine heritage foundation or us the tax payers of this state?
your agenda seems to be written right out of their talking points! what about the students who might have been able to afford going to the new college campus just because it cut their travel expenses,they could stay at home and work part time in a business right at brunswick landing? what about the contractors work force that will be laid off because of your lack of knowledge? (an that is proving to be showing up a lot lately) I mean what happens if several businesses see this as
a negative to their future investment(we already lost the airplane company thanks to you)! ah yes your legacy will fit right in with this ole saying:
once again "republicans continue to prove they are incapable of leading"
