Opinion: Blocking Travel Ban.

[Rob Tucker]

yeah pog, Its right on the edge.

Marvel Comics and National Enquirer have large readership too.

But in the end, when it comes to a final decision, that decision will be mine.

Ok Rob.


I would have put my source down for that but did not want to be falsely accused again + that part is not puna related at all paul.

[Rob Tucker]

Once it starts its hard to stop...

Let's just keep Punaweb Puna.

Anyone know whose appointee this judge is? This why elections matter. I can only imagine the kind of 'judges' Ige will leave us with...

[Rob Tucker]

Joe,

Federal judges are appointed by presidents and ratified by Congress not appointed by governors.

I would assume we have judges on the Federal bench, at this moment, who have been appointed by Reagan, both Bushes, Clinton, Obama and soon Trump. Which is why elections matter.

Relax. It has worked this way for 240 years.

Our governor appoints state judges in a similar manner.

[Kapoho Joe]

Yes, yes. Just desperately trying to keep this thing local...

[dmbwest]

Obama appointee Joe, Obama also came down here 48 hours prior to ruling.

grandstanding political move advanced by our Hawaii legislators

110% correct. If the State wanted to make Hawaii a better "tourism destination", they would eliminate the mosquitos that carry dengue, zika, yellow fever, etc.

I'm curious if pog is going to ban muslims from his airportparking?

Hawaii's getting a lot of free publicity out of this:
