President Barack Obama gets no respect. Even as Republicans vow to repeal Obama’s sweeping health care law leading up to the crucial mid-term elections in November, one Republican candidate, Paul LePage, says if he’s elected governor of Maine, he plans to tell Obama “Go to hell.”
LePage, who is backed by the conservative tea party movement, spoke at a Republican forum last week while stumping for votes.
“And as your governor,” LePage told the crowd, you're gonna be seeing a lot of me on the front page saying ‘Gov. LePage tells Obama to go to hell.”
Why was that kind of profanity necessary? Who knows? It’s tough talk from LePage, a Republican hothead who not only disrespects Obama with his hateful comments, but he also disrespects the Office of the President.
Because Obama is America’s first black president, there is a question about whether LePage lashed out about Obama, in part, because he’s black. Would LePage have told a white president, who was a Democrat, to “go to hell?”
What’s clear is this: There will always be ideological differences between Democrats and Republicans but the tea party’s criticism of Obama’s policies usually turn ugly.
"If this is his attitude towards the president of the United States, I can't imagine what he would say when a local legislator or constituent disagrees with him," Arden Manning, who heads the Democrats' Victory 2010 campaign, said in a statement.
LePage, like many other Republicans, is critical of Obama’s economic recovery efforts and reminds the administration that the nation’s unemployment rate is stuck at 9.5 percent.
On Monday, Obama tried to counter the GOP’s assault and announced an initiative called Skills for America’s Future, a new, industry-led plan to substantially improve industry partnerships with community colleges and build a nationwide network to create jobs.

Translation to English: Obama Denies Respect the Nation Demands
jackass said it all!
Oh, yes—it’s because he’s black, isn’t it? LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!
Obama, just like the street thugs he was around, and now represents, see RESPECT as an ENTITLEMENT.
They don’t believe they have to do anything to ‘deserve’ it.
a lot of me on the front page saying ‘Gov. LePage tells Obama to go to hell.”
Why was that kind of profanity necessary?
Wow.
He said Hell.
What did Biden say???
Big 0?
Rahm?
The finger by the Prez................
If the white president did what Obama has done, then hell yeah. Libs are obsessed with race every day of their miserable lives.
Just wait till we get a look at the “respect” these
folks show President Palin. That won’t be racist though
only sexist.
Nor for the OFFICE and FURNITURE we provided for him.

Yeah, my wife noticed when Joe “The Gaffe” Biden was in town stumping for Patty “Flat Line” Murray, he referred to the Undocumented One as “Barrack”.
The little things add up. When your number two man gets to refer to you in public like you were drinking buds, when you have Tony Hawk riding skateboards in the White House, when you party likes it’s 1999 all the time and your policies are Jackassian, and then you top the whole noxious mixture with a healthy dose of whipped snobbery and elitism, the resulting dish gets no respect.
Surprise, surprise.
When respect is merited, respect will be given. It must be earned. What we are seeing is the difference between the marketing spin surrounding the usurper in chief and the awful reality of his tenure as the president. Turd polish only goes so far.
For the record: Paul Lepage is one of 18 children, was homeless at 11, hustled the streets of Lewiston, maine to survive, and didn’t speak English until he became an adult. he put himself through college, grad school, rose to become the CEO of a major business in Maine, got elected Mayor of Waterville - an overwhelmingly democrat city—and then got 38% of the vote in a seven way primary filled with insiders and millionaire’s
Paul LePage has earned the right to tell Obama to go to hell if he wants to.
Obama must earn respect. He has done nothing decent to earn such repect. He is pure trash.
Obama set the rules when he decided to scorn our Constitution, he is not worthy of respect!
And how much respect did they show, President Bush. Why is it all those so called "principled" protests of the Iraq War immediately stopped when Obama took office; all despite the fact he had the exact same time frame for withdrawal? Because it's nothing more than a game to them...one which they sought to beat down Bush at every turn possible. Respect? Please! How much would our forefathers give Obama?
