text: .The Executive order is not a 'Muslim ban.' The Constitution is not a suicide pact: the President has authority to control our borders. This AP news article cements its reputation, and the Star Advertisers' complicity, as one-sided and, by omission of the facts of the matter, pandering to a certain class of Hawaii's voters who see only 'we love all ethnicities and religions.' Look at the grins in the photo. This is political grandstanding and a distraction from the Puerto-Rico-like trajectory of this state's public finances and the slow moving train-wreck social disaster created by tight land use, over-regulation of building, import of international big money folk, and either the exodus of our young families or their being ground down by 2-job, long-commute, unaffordable living conditions. Oh, and homelessness. Oh, and medical doctors' retiring or leaving. Oh, and can't keep teachers on the job. Oh, and the 10,000+ extra state workers hired by Waihee still burning up our cash.
