PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — The Maine Republican who made headlines with his "go to hell" remark aimed at President Barack Obama says he's looking forward to meeting his commander in chief on Thursday.

Gov.-elect Paul LePage, who won a five-way race with support of the tea party, is joining other governors-elect in Washington to meet with Obama and to discuss homeland security.
LePage says he looks forward to talking to Obama.
He hasn't changed his message about what he calls burdensome rules and regulations. But he says he'd use different words than he did in September when he told fishermen complaining about federal regulations that "you're going to be seeing a lot of me on the front page, saying 'Governor LePage tells Obama to go to hell.'"

He said it. He was running his mouth out of tune when he said it. And, now, he has to face the community organizer in chief face to face and deal with it. Awfully big flap over nothing.

I would hope Bam-Bam has enough respect to genuflect or at least bow when he meets LePage. He usually does when he meets leaders.

I wish President Obama didn't have too much class to tell lepage exactly where lepage should go. The disrepect this buffoon gave to the President deserves nothing less than a kick in the rear.
