LePage: I'd tell Obama to 'go to hell'

[one_voice]

Maine Republican Paul LePage says he’ll have a fiery message for President Obama if he’s elected governor: “Go to hell.”

The GOP nominee’s comments surfaced on Dirigo Blue, a left-leaning Maine blog Tuesday. The video captured the Waterville mayor taking questions from a group of fisherman at a Republican forum who told him that financial regulations were driving them to poverty.


“We came from behind because we have a message. We have a message that says: One, we've had enough of the federal government. We've had enough. Two, we've had enough of the state government. And No. 3, government should be working for the people, not the people working for the government,” LePage says in the video. “And as your governor, you're gonna be seeing a lot of me on the front page saying ‘Gov. LePage tells Obama to go to hell.’”

It’s not the first time the tea party-backed LePage has made headlines for profanity-laced comments since he won a crowded June GOP primary. He walked out his own press conference last week after reporters began pressing him on his wife’s residence — Ann LePage has received permanent-resident tax exemptions on homes in Maine and Florida. Later that day, LePage was filmed cursing at another reporter who pressed him on whether his children paid in-state tuition at Florida State University.

[VMI Dem]

1. Fuck you, LePage.

[hlthe2b]

2. Someone please tell me that this guy has no chance?

or at least is behind?

[tsuki]

3. I am a Florida resident and I want the wife and kids prosecuted. What

they did was not legal. And this anti-tax neanderthal has no problem educating his children on tax revenue that he is not entitled to. He's not a hypocrite, he's a douche.


I wonder if they registered to vote in two states?

[Terra Alta]

4. Me to LePage: YOU go to hell.

I hope Maine does NOT elect this fool... aren't they usually a pretty liberal state?

[muffin1]

5. LePage...

Fuck you. Fuck you very, very much.

[zbdent]

6. can you imagine the media shitstorm which would have ensued if

a Democrat had said something like that (even much less incendiary) about George W. Bush? The Dem would have been dragged through the streets to the cheers of the ("liberal") media ...

[Solly Mack]

7. So...he's had enough of the state government but he wants to be state governor?

So he can be sick of himself? I know I'm already sick of him...

[lonestarnot]

8. Lepaging asshole, lepaging asshole, please pick up the white paging phone.

Now go fuck yourself you leCON!

[peacefreak]

9. As a Mainer, my fondest wish is LePage will keep on talking.

The polls are beginning to shift against him. Every time he opens his mouth he is proving himself to be a bully. His arrogance & belligerence has no place in the Blaine House. He is showing over & over that he does not have the ability to stand up to close public scrutiny.

10. If LePage & his ilk take over Congress...

Obama won't have to go to hell; the Teapublicans will bring it here.
