Maunakea is no puppet. Mayors campaign manager, Mel, shay, blah blahblah.... These are people, Not boogie men. Stop projecting your own anxiety onto others. Mauna Kea is strong. And you have no idea what the future holds. And also, He could never be compared to Mark Guayot. Marc was a total incompetent idiot. Like 6:09 said, Mel and MK are way above and beyond your tabloid trash predictions. But like the saying goes, haters gonna hate.

Hawaii forgets the great ones quickly.<br />Mauna Kea will stick to the law, facts and keep a level head. Imagine having to deal with the "smartest man in the world" AKA Gary Hooser. Gary will put Mauna Kea to the test. Gary don't got no rice cooker, but he got the HAPA thing, which should stop him from voting on many Council bills. Hopefully, some one in the Council will throw HAPA on the Ethics Board and County Attorney's desk this month. Gary is serving 2 masters, HAPA is one and the desire to git hose "national headlines" is the other. I don't think Gary gives two goat turds for the future of the island. He sure doesn't have time for local people.

They certainly didn't tow the line, and I think some of the commentators on here, would think that some of the Trask Ohana was not to your way of doing things.<br /><br />The Trasks are an enigma, and part of our important Hawaii heritage.

If the council had listened to his advice and changed some of the illegal language and then passed the bill, we may have avoided the legal challenge. So whether you are for or against 2491, his advice was right and blame JoAnn and her friends for thinking she knows better by passing the bill after her legal council advised the words needed change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-25700534902378606922014-11-25T07:21:57.227-10:002014-11-25T07:21:57.227-10:008:56 Mauna Kea was Not part of the beer fest.8:56 Mauna Kea was Not part of the beer fest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875069982976812251.post-26282934594482121472014-11-25T06:46:17.879-10:002014-11-25T06:46:17.879-10:00To what specifically are you referring 8:58 pm?To what specifically are you referring 8:58 pm?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
