Comments on: Tuesday…More on Awana, the Varsity, and Kaaawa calm http://ilind.net/2007/06/19/tuesday-2/ Ian Lind • Online daily from Kaaawa, Hawaii Sun, 12 Feb 2012 22:33:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Mighty http://ilind.net/2007/06/19/tuesday-2/comment-page-1/#comment-83 Mighty Tue, 19 Jun 2007 19:45:16 +0000 http://ilind.net/2007/06/19/tuesday-2/#comment-83 Charles, a military alliance with Indonesia could come in handy should Malaysia declare war on Hawaii. But really, don't you think it was a little too convenient for her to be out of the state when the news stories about her chief of staff began to break? By the time she returns, things should have cooled down somewhat. Charles, a military alliance with Indonesia could come in handy should Malaysia declare war on Hawaii.

The red meat of the media. How about the dubious ties with the Indonesian military that Lingle just cultivated? Nah, no big deal, eh? Ah, sex and politics. The red meat of the media.

How about the dubious ties with the Indonesian military that Lingle just cultivated?

Nah, no big deal, eh?

Of course, allegations are just that but I recall in January of this year the AG's office was investigating a vaguely similar complaint regarding a Honolulu's Waimanalo Gulch landfill. See, "Hawaii A-G Bennett investigating Health Dept. corruption charges" http://www.legalnewsline.com/news/contentview.asp?c=188538 involving the company Waste Management. Does anyone else sense a connection here? The astute observer might also notice that Sen. Colleen Hanabusa not only represents Bob Awana as his attorney in civil matters but also the district in which the landfill in located. Does she have an ethical problem with these relationships? Getting a bit convoluted I'd say.
