Not to beat this to death, but the other day I quoted the Portland Press Herald who said that incoming Tea Party Governor Paul LePage thought that if 35 states opposed a law it would die law “automatically”.
Well his lackies have now clarified his remarks: “Paul LePage clarifies disputed comment on health care reform.”
Apparently the law to which he was referring was:
… the introduction of a possible constitutional amendment to allow any provision of federal law or rule to be repealed if at least 35 states object to its implementation.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
Because he’s not a moron.
