Somalis and massholes, talk about a double plague. Baldacci brings it to three strikes. :-(

Your right. Maine is serene and beautiful. It's the Government that stinks! (Most of them).

They can bring their own nightgowns to the hospital...

Your tax dollars at work. These people are on welfare, and worry about their little bare bottoms, while we pay for their medical care with our tax dollars??? How vain is that. This country is insane when it comes to bending over for immigrants needs. Especially the indigent ones.

For what it's worth:  I have NEVER called a Somalia in Maine a terrorist.  My biggest concern is that the lawmakers in Maine brought in over 1,200 Somali's when Maine is the second poorest state in the Union.  Last I heard, only 49 Somali's were working out of the 1,200.  The rest are living off of our welfare system and bleeding the shelters dry from supplies before our own poor can get to the supplies that have been donated.

I commend anyone coming to America, becoming a citizen, learn English and works hard for the money.  But for the lawmakers to bring in immigrants just to get more money from the FEDS is wrong.  I know Maine is desperate for money, but we taxpayers are paying first, and it's hard for all of us.
