This is fascinating and funny same time. 3 ex-democrat governors commiserating about the sad state of the State and looking for something to blame.
You got Ariyoshi, Mr. “Quiet but effective” which translates into “Back room deals by Plantation Asian”, the guy whos name was on plenny Huis as he oversaw the indiscriminate bulldozing and paving of Hawaii. More beaches taken over under this man than maybe any single political leader in human history.
Then you got Lolo Waihee. Wasn’t his house being foreclosed upon not too long ago? Wonder who bailed him out? This is the guy that spent Hawaii into massive deficits and was a king of old boy politics. He was drooling to be either a Bishop Estate Trustee or a Senator and knew he was going to be one of them. His genius choice for Bishop Estate trustee, who he pressured the Supreme Court Justices to appoint, was Mr. Gerard Jervis, the guy who thought acceptable behavior for his million a year was to have sex in a bathroom in Hawaii Prince Hotel with his secretary (who then committed suicide.) Waihee was an old boy horse trader who couldn’t run a lemonaide stand.
And then the bulldog with a Napoleon complex, Ben Cayetano. This guy loves to talk about “Us local people”, “we built dis place”, “us, us, us, us, we, we, we” but he only means PLANTATION ASIANS and couple token Hawaiians.
So what happens at this pathetic Plantation Asian meeting? I think they were mostly longing for the good ole days. That’s why they had to go to ewa where some evidence of the plantation still exists. And of course Waihee has nothing intelligent to say. Ariyoshi is concerned because “Today, the homeless people are our own people," Brah, the homeless people I’ve known over the past 50 years have been MY people, the HAWAIIAN people. Of course when Ariyoshi says “our own people”, he means PLANTATION ASIANS. That’s all this immigrant is worried about.
And angry Cayetano can only talk about how "The Republicans in the Legislature should be irrelevant given their numbers” yet he can’t figure out why Lingle (that %&)#)(* Haole lady in his mind) has any power at all. Here, Cayetano is obviously longing for the good ole days when any opposition party was completely irrelevant. Basically, the mess that Hawaii has become over the past 50 years is all Lingle’s fault.
But I did find this pow wow to commiserate about the state of the state refreshing in ways. It is a sign that these fools are loosing their grip. Cayetano can’t figure it out cuz many of the 40 and under generations of Plantation Asians are not blindly supporting the Democrat party line because many of them are struggling to survive themselves. Not like the ole days when you support HGEA, ILWU, HSTA and bam, guaranz cherry job for life. Nope, not like the good ole days. And that’s a good thing.

hi this is sansei and i just read this post and i agree with that one former governor is what my deceased father called the hawaiian playboy and it's wahiee and my Deceased father voted for both Ariyoshi and cayetano is he believed that these 2 former governor's were right for the job at the time and he didnt like current governor,Linda Lingle and i agree with him on linda lingle is she's much like the old boy network and im hoping she get's impeached so we'd vote and have a better governor like Former Governor's Ariyoshi and Cayetano.
