Believe Texas already tried saying no and was shut down by the court system. We have untold Muslims, thousands of mosques and the Houston Independent School District now has a school that offers Arab immersion curriculum. We who are not liberal Democrats, LGBT, illegal Hispanic or muslim are rapidly becoming a miniority.

Us too. We voted for him twice and he kissed our daughter on both cheeks at his inauguration! If we could vote for him again we surely would.

I live in Maine and I also voted for him twice, in 2010 and 2014.

I can’t wait until he runs for the U.S. Senate in 2018.

If any Freeper is unfamiliar with lepage I urge you to read up. The man is as Tea Party as it gets. His background story is amazing and he has received more votes last election than any gov candidate ever. His supporters are mostly native born Mainers - not the damned transplants who have ruined the state.

‘Love this guy.’

Why’d he agree in the first place?

Gov. Paul LePage is the best Governor in the USA. Honest and fearless, he’s an inspiration to a huge number of people all over the country. Take your stance, Gov. LePage, and never back down.

I don’t think he has the power to stop them now or then. Hussein can dump them wherever he wants. I think this is more a demand than anything else.

Meanwhile, Hogan, that pussy Republican Governor of Maryland, runs and hides when he’s challenged to put a stop to the illegal alien invasion of our State.
