It is this continued practice of allowing people that don't live here to meddle with local politics. This continuing effort of mainland haole trying to manipulate these islands and people is truly a curse on Hawaii.
That's funny, even the pro GMO corporate shill Jon Entine's site says that it is a Maui resident who's supplying the payola.

You know what's really a "curse on Hawaii?"
Mainland megacorps shoving their distasteful business practices down our collective throats.

"Community concerns have grown so much that last year, Kauai passed a law that in part requires biotech companies to disclose details of their pesticide use and abide by buffer zones near roads, schools and other areas. The law, which is set to go into effect in August, is currently being challenged by Sygenta and other seed companies."
Can you say "Atrazine" found in Hawai'i surface water?
(you know, Atrazine, the big money maker for Jon Entine's favored corporate entity, Syngenta)
Now these f-ing transplants are trying to tell us that since the levels detected are "miniscule" that we should rejoice?
ANY amount of foreign chemical pollution in our hydrosphere is unacceptable!
