Only few days left Rerun #79

This blog is from November 3, 2012, we had troubles then

and it has not gotten any better.

Dark money is a term for funds used to pay for an election campaign without proper disclosure before voters go to the polls. If an election is held and "dark funds" helped sway the voters, it is termed a dark election. Funds can be spent on the behalf of a candidate running in an election, or to influence voting on a ballot question. Some are not aware of the implications of voting for crooks.

 Los Angeles Rapid Transit buses, almost 100 seated passenger capacity.

The phrase “hitting a new low in politics” is usually an exaggeration. But in this year’s race for Honolulu mayor, that statement appears right on the mark, with PRP and "Dark Money." Caldwell has been in denial but he is in it up to his ears and more people are becoming aware. There will still be many suckers voting for crooks.

New Chinese tandem buses with over 100 passenger capacity. We are not talking cattle anymore, this is the 21st Century, we are talking human beings. And they will all see that there are 100 cars missing from the freeway right in front of them. The drivers are "sitting" in the bus.

Pacific Resource Partnership (PRP) and other pro-rail special interests are spending over $3 million – an enormous sum in an Oahu mayoral campaign – to tarnish the reputation of Governor Ben Cayetano and thereby boost the election chances of staunch rail supporter Kirk Caldwell.

 This is the answer to all our problems and at a much reduced cost.

This could probably benefit the entire island.

PRP, an organization of general contractors and unionized carpenters, knows the $5.3 billion heavy rail boondoggle would cost much more than estimated and reduce traffic congestion by less than two percent. Cost estimates are now at Seven Billion. That’s why PRP is trying to buy the election with an onslaught of vicious attack ads, “push polls,” mailers and other propaganda filled with distortions and outright lies concerning Governor Ben’s three decades in public service.

San Francisco found out too late that they had been taken by the same crooks that are in Honolulu now. But they soon realized that not many users wanted to go to trouble of getting to the rail. Buses were full. Rail was empty. High maintenance cost, and everyone agreed it looked like hell. They finally tore it down. Now the city looking beautiful again and people riding their tandem buses very nicely. But some in Honolulu want us to spend ten billion dollars on another disaster. Auwe!

And Linda Lingle says it may bankrupt the state. She hasn't taken into consideration that the neighbor islands may be asked to help in the paying. May take 30 years but that is what Caldwell and the rest of the crooks are demanding right now. And many that have been suckered in are going to vote for him. Dumb Dodos.
