LePage apparently lacks basic critical thinking skills

Gov. Paul LePage appears to lack the ability to assess whether he should say something aloud just because it pops into his head. That skill is a basic sign of maturity and empathy, which LePage apparently lacks.

LePage comment comes as no surprise

Gov. Paul LePage is beneath contempt. The litany of vulgarities that spew from his mouth reveal nothing so much as a brimming toilet of a mind.

Pesto to be proud of

What a treat! I'm very proud of this fine young man, Noah Koch, from Maine ("Vegan recipe wins boy cook trip to White House," June 25). I made the pesto and served it with a mix of orzo and quinoa to boost the protein even higher. I also had sliced fresh tomatoes on the side.

Financial experts, including a venture capitalist and a professor from California, have determined such a move will enrich everyone and create more jobs. So it must be true.
