I have a significant history with Hawaiian politicians. As a group they are as incompetent as any group of buttdragging politicos anyplace anywhere. Mayor Frank Fasi, the mayor of Honolulu back in the 60-70’s, was the last non-gummint bred guy to ever be in a position of authority. He was the guy who bought one-way tickets to the west coast for drifters, beach bums, homeless, etc. types.

Once , in the late 70’s I slugged a desk in city hall after getting the wrong answer, 3 times, to a building permit question. I got an instant meeting with the entire top floor of city hall and had the problem fixed before the meeting was over. They respond to fear. As a registered engineer, with knuckles, they realized they had to listen to me whether they wanted, or not.

That's a blast from the past. My Dad was stationed on Ford Island for a few years. Our elementary school got to tour the Governor's Mansion, that was pretty cool.
