Richard Ha, the usual pseudonyms, and a couple of pro-GMO PR guys from the mainland have chosen to accuse me of conflict of interest. Having nothing of substance to say, he is repeating these false allegations everywhere he can.
I will reply in detail shortly. But for now please be assured there is no conflict of interest. I have this on the highest authority, that is, the Senate attorneys who decide such matters.
Richard Ha is incorrect ethically, legally, factually and logically. I have explained this to Mr. Ha on several occasions in print, including these pages and he ignores my answer, repeating the falsehood that I have not responded.
Freedom of speech is a two way street, and I did not relinquish my rights when I got elected. In fact I have a greater duty than ever to represent my community.
Mr. Ha subscribes to the infamous theory that if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it. I feel sorry for him, but I will not be silent on important issues.
