"point of clarity...both Legislative Houses for Hawaii were controlled by democrats...who ultimately control the governor..."
The House controls the Governor? We must've had different Civics teachers.

In any case ... Superferry permits were defective, TMT permits aren't.
Not that permits matter anymore.

Kalakoa posts,
"How it really works: (R & D) vs "the People".
agreed. and aren't we the fools to fall for it.
So many talking points by both parties that somehow they never live up to.
Idealism that sounds just and fair....in someone else's community, where some one else has to struggle with the reality of the "political fallout of the day" wrecking a community.
I will never understand how people can so blindly follow either party.

Frank - with respect, you brought up democrats and republicans. No-one else did until you mentioned it. This is not a helpful argument when it comes to the TMT or astronomy on Mauna Kea and just adds to the tensions that already exist. I have no idea why you brought the subject up unless you just want to troll and make things worse.
