Will Hanabusa Support Stopping Tax Hikes on Small Businesses Before Congress Skips Town?
By News Release @ 11:36 AM :: 10881 Views :: Maui County, Education K-12, Energy, Environment, National News, Ethics
|
“While working families and small business owners across the country are bracing for massive tax hikes, Washington is only piling on the uncertainty as they attempt to avoid action on their scheduled tax increases. It’s time that Colleen Hanabusa finally stand up to President Obama and the Democrats’ job-killing policies and pledge not to support adjournment unless there has been an up or down vote on stopping any and all tax hikes from occurring.”

GOP: Ed Case repeats losing three-way Special Election strategy
By Dylan Nonaka @ 7:16 PM :: 9040 Views :: Maui County, Education K-12, Energy, Environment
|
"Case has no credibility when it comes to three-way special election strategy. Just four months ago, he was telling Democrats that they should vote for him because if they did not, Charles Djou might win the special election for Congress. In the end, he finished third and proved that he should have been telling his voters not to vote for him if he really wanted a Democrat to win the seat.

Prevedouros: Case, Carlisle panic
By News Release @ 4:27 PM :: 9764 Views :: Maui County, Education K-12, Energy, Environment
|
Last night's debate is sending shockwaves throughout the political community. Our opponents have outspent us 7:1, yet last night, the people supported Panos by 7:1. The waves of panic spread so strong that the beleaguered Ed Case had to send out an email asking people to not vote for Panos. We couldn't have gotten a better validation of how we will put an end to the status quo and we thank Mr. Case for his confirmation.

Washington- It’s been more than 18 months since Colleen Hanabusa's Democrat friends passed a trillion-dollar stimulus bill promising to keep unemployment under eight percent and create four million jobs and, so far, one thing is clear: It’s an utter failure. With unemployment at an unacceptably high 9.6 percent, the economy in a complete tailspin and the nation deeply in debt, Democrats now want to ram through a $50 billion spending bill in a last ditch attempt to salvage their crumbling political careers.

Colleen Hanabusa's Recovery Bummer: Unemployment at 9.6%

|
Washington- House Democrats’ summer recess is almost over and it’s time for Colleen Hanabusa and her out-of-touch friends to face the music. With another failed attempt at recovery under their belts, Democrats are facing a bruising uphill battle this November. With unemployment at an unacceptably high 9.6 percent and way above the once-promised eight percent, Democrats have officially run out of excuses. Their trillion-dollar stimulus failed to produce jobs and their runaway spending spree has left the nation in debt, putting their Democrat majority up for grabs this fall – and making Hanabusa accountable for supporting her party’s failed economic agenda.

I like Panos Prevedouros: his energy and enthusiasm; outside-politics base and perspective; and fresh thinking and independence. We need him and many others like him to seek and serve in elective office. In this election, though, he and Carlisle are the change candidates against a status quo Caldwell; I don't want that vote to be split at the risk of Caldwell prevailing. As well, as a cautious mass transit supporter, I don't believe rail should be effectively scuttled on this vote. So for me Prevedouros is a yes, but not this one.

Democrats Want to Slam Small Businesses with Massive Tax Hike: Where’s Hanabusa?
By News Release @ 12:50 PM :: 11239 Views :: Maui County, Education K-12, Energy, Environment, National News, Ethics
|
Washington- In another attempt to distract from their record of runaway spending and economic failure, House Democrats have handed down new marching orders to Democratic candidate Colleen Hanabusa. Their latest strategy to gloss over their job-killing agenda is to instruct loyal followers like Hanabusa and her Washington friends to highlight the party’s so-called small business agenda. Likely missing from the latest directive, however, is any mention that Washington Democrats are pushing forward with a plan to slam small businesses with massive tax hikes that are certain to kill jobs, prevent businesses from hiring, and set the already-struggling economy back even more.
