Lepage helps with breakfast out of the trunk

In a bid to prove cost cutting can happen in Augusta, Paul Lepage helped to free the legislative pastries from the trunk of a meeting organizer's car. He could have hired an intern, or better a caterer, but took this weighty mission upon himself. Ms. Paula's hope is that someone is paying for the pastries out of their own pocket, for the rest of us in the state are paying $3.49 out of our pockets for a loaf of bread. Subsidizing the meals of politicos at the state house in these tight times is unacceptable.
       As the State of Maine heads into an era of eliminating programs, cutting off funding, and consolidating, we the people of Maine should not have to fund any food programs for politicians. Cutting should start right at the source. All meals and lodging, all trips, any and all expense account reimbursements should cease. The regular people of Maine pay for gasoline to drive day in and day out. We pay for all our meals out of pocket. And as far as the expense of flying to meetings, junkets, training, or Washington, most of this is excess that can, and should be, taken care of on the nearest computer.
     On another note, upon Lepage's suggestion, the house has installed Bruce Poliquin as Treasurer. Let's see if he can keep Robert Nutting's hands out of the treasure. Nutting is the 'republicon' Speaker of the House, freshly back from a four year stint at the Waterville Walmart pharmacy. Nutting filed chapter 7 bankruptcy for his pharmaceutical company, to avoid repaying the State of Maine 1.6 million dollars. Speaking of Waterville notice a trend here? Lepage, Waterville, Poliquin, Waterville, Robert Nutting, yes, yes, Waterville. But How does Charlie Summers fit in? He moved here in 1983 from Kewanee, Illinois. Charlie gets to have his name on your license for he has been appointed, I mean anointed to the position of Secretary of State. Well it turns out that Charlie was an aid to Olympia Snow, and Olympia's first husband paid for King Paul to attend Husson College. Ahhh... the sweet beauty of the blossoming 'Republicon' reign in Maine.
                          Well good day, for now.  Ms. Paula Page
