How do we know that Lingle isn't bringing H1N1 as a gift to the Chinese?

H1N1 is already here. Why is Lingle going over there? Those Chinese want to gamble not go to the beach. Hawaii is absolutely no gamble state like Utah. Those Chinese may stop off here and then get on a flight to Las Vegas and gamble their little heads off. We are stupid with gambling we could pay for schools and many other programs. Sure we will have social problems associated with gaming, but do we have any choices?

I thought we didn't have money? How come she is traveling? Why China? Alakai is right, the pakes like to gamble.

hawaii will never have legalized gambling as long as churches hold power. of course we can't get rid of churches but we can diminish their power. i say we tax all churches like any other business. income from such taxes alone would alleviate lots of our financial problems.
