Like Glenn Beck, Maine Gov LePage Rails Against "Communist" Artwork

I've been late in posting the story of Maine's Governor Paul LePage removing a mural celebrating the history of the worker's rights movement from the Department of Labor. This article provides valuable context to LePage's inflammatory act and links a number of other pieces that have been written throughout the country over the past couple of weeks.

"Many Americans are angry about the attack on our living standards and basic rights by the right-wing forces around the country -- of which the Maine mural controversy is but a small part. It is time for President Obama to give a major speech attacking those forces and providing those struggling on the ground the "audacity of hope" that was, and still could be, his promise."
