        Dear voters in Maine, Removing LePage is the equivalent of removing a Confederate statue.

        Yeah well it's LePage. If he could have thought up something more absurd, he would have said that instead.

        911 memorial remembers the VICTIMS. Confederate statues celebrate and glorify racist traitors. Not even close in comparison.

        Removing the Maine governor would be equivalent to liberating Maine from a crazy racist.

        Confederate Generals = perpetrators of terror 9/11 Casualties = victims of terror See, @Governor_LePage, I simplified it so you'd understand

        These white supremacist panderers really stink at analogies.-NOT removing them would be like maintaining statutes of the 9/11 perpetrators!!

        I don't remember there being any monuments for Al Qaeda or Osama Bin Laden in this country.

        As far as I know @Governor_LePage, the US does not have monuments to the 9/11 terrorist. Might want to rethink your position.
