"I question whether one can start a museum in a residentially-zoned area without a variance. I am not certain Kahala residents want such a facility in their neighborhood," said Representative Marumoto.

VIDEO: House Speaker Calvin Say suggests Lili`uokalani could be converted to a Charter School.

Olbermann: It is not disloyalty to remind the President that he was elected by people to whom he had given a clear outline of what he would do for them.  And if he does not steer out of the skid of what he is doing to them, he will not only not be reelected, he may not even be re-nominated.

It is not disloyalty to remind him that we are not bound to an individual.  We are bound to principles.  If the individual changes or fails often or needlessly, then we get a new man.  Or woman….

HONOLULU - Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan today announced the launch of their closing television ad, “Crowd Surfing,” in response to the negative campaigning of their opponents. "Crowd Surfing" focuses on the issues, highlighting Duke and Lynn’s plan to create job opportunities, strengthen the economy and reform public education, and asks Hawai‘i voters for their support on Tuesday, Nov. 2.

HONOLULU - Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan today launched the final video of their online web series to discuss issues that are important to Hawai‘i's working families and small businesses.  The final spot, "Easier," focuses on Duke Aiona’s commitment to prevention as a means to shaping a healthier Hawai‘i.

Starting this week, we are going back on television with our "Mountains of Debt" commercial--making a promise to future generations. We are starting a telephone outreach program to conservative and independent voters.  And we are reaching the people of Hawaii about Daniel Inouye's record with our online ad campaign.

He’s caring and courageous, taking on the political establishment to put working families first, fighting irresponsible spending that threatens our keiki’s future, creating new local jobs by opening overseas markets so Hawaii families can stay here together.

“As Governor, I will continue to lead and vigorously implement the Hawai‘i Clean Energy Initiative, and I will enact policies and initiatives that, by 2018, will cut Hawai‘i's dependence on foreign oil by more than half," said Duke Aiona. “Our opponents’ energy plan would take focus away from implementation of HCEI, stalling our progress on clean energy and further increasing the size and scope of government at the expense of small businesses."

Avatar director James Cameron is conscious, enlightened, and progressive.  He is smarter than we are so he is entitled to live like a god.  We peasants are dirtying the planet which Cameron and the other enlightened beings so generously grace with their presence.

More arrogance from the nation's only molester-employing Legislator.

The release of the web series video comes on the heels of an admission by our opponent that he will stand in line with the leadership of the Hawai‘i State Teachers Association (HSTA) by opposing a ballot proposition on whether Hawai‘i's next Governor should be allowed to appoint the Board of Education (BOE).

This is the first American Crossroads independent expenditure campaign ad.

"Tonight she was unable to articulate anything the Congress had done in the past year that she would have voted against, she was unable to describe how she would encourage job creation and she continued to tout the success of the so-called 'stimulus' bill which has failed by the very standard its proponents set. The people of Hawaii deserve independent, fiscally responsible leadership, not a rubber stamp."

Neil Abercrombie says that people in Hawaii “are not interested in how politicians will balance the budget." 

"The fact is Colleen Hanabusa's handlers on the mainland have decided to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to lie about Charles' record and district voters from her own troubling record," said Dylan Nonaka, Hawaii Republican Party Executive Director.

"In this difficult economy, the last thing voters in Hawaii's first Congressional district want is a politician who has voted for just about every tax increase and government regulation imaginable, killing local jobs and paying off her union cronies."

HONOLULU - Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan today launched the second television ad of their general election campaign for Governor and Lieutenant Governor. The new spot, "Retro," follows Duke and Lynn in a series of b-roll shots as they interact with a wide range of people, including small business owners and their respective families.

HONOLULU - Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan today launched the third in a series of videos they are sharing online to discuss real solutions for all of Hawai‘i. The third spot, "Power," focuses on reducing the financial burden on Hawai‘i's working families and small businesses.

John Willoughby is the GOP candidate for CD2 vs Mazie Hirono and Scott Henderson is the GOP candidate for State House Dist 7 vs Cindy Evans. 

HONLULU—The Hawaii Republican Party stopped by Colleen Hanabusa’s headquarters this afternoon with moving boxes fresh off her statement and our video released yesterday indicating she would be moving into Hawaii’s First Congressional District.

Naturally she withheld this magnificent announcement until encountering an amateur videographer on a Washington, DC street corner. 

[Colleen Hanabusa]  "I can tell you right now, in government I don't think there's waste, per se.”

[Charles Djou] "You know that's not true. Our government is wasting billions of dollars. We may be the first generation in American history to leave the next worse off.

HONOLULU - Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan today launched the second in a series of videos they are sharing online to discuss real solutions for all of Hawai‘i. The second spot, "Fuel," focuses on small businesses, which fuel Hawai‘i's economy.

The 30-second web video consists of time-lapse driving sequences, seeing the islands through Duke Aiona's perspective as we hear his thoughts.

Abercrombie voted for higher taxes on Hawaii families, the bailout, failed stimulus - bonuses for Wall Street executives.  

In this economy, Mr. Abercrombie?

HONOLULU - Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan today launched the first in a series of videos they will share online to discuss real solutions that will benefit all of Hawai‘i. The first spot, "Piston," focuses on job creation, which will be Duke Aiona and Lynn Finnegan's top priority as Governor and Lt. Governor.

"Judging from their most recent ad, it's clear National Democrats are rattled. They know the only way they can win is by trying to mislead the people of Hawaii. They know, and more importantly, the voters of Hawaii's First Congressional District know that my record is clear: I have supported measures that will put our fiscal house in order, create jobs and help our community."

Congressman Djou spoke on the House floor in support of S.1055 (H.R. 347) – granting the Congressional Gold Medal, collectively, to the 100th Infantry Battalion and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, United States Army, in recognition of their dedicated service during World War II.

Duke Aiona advocates the Power of Aloha program. It provides hundreds of students with lessons about character and making smart choices. 

“It’s easier to build strong children than it is to fix broken adults.” 

Washington, DC — Congressman Charles K. Djou (HI-01) appeared on CNBC’s “Worldwide Exchange” this morning to discuss the departure of Larry Summers from the White House, the failed economic policies of this Administration and the current majority in Congress and what needs to be done to achieve economic growth. Clip and excerpts below....

That’s funny.  Hanabusa started her political career by saying “no” to Margery Bronster at the behest of Larry Mehau in order to protect the Broken Trustees of Bishop Estate.
