How many others have gone from supporting

Connect the dots, it’s not Senator Schatz
(Notice woman in the photo on left signaling that Brian Schatz and Mazie Hirono are #1-actually that photo was at the Democratic convention protesting Hillary's nomination) ;-)
but rather the most popular Mazie Hirono who recently garnished national attention with her part in the Kavanaugh hearing and her stance on the 'Me too' movement. She said on national TV to the men of our country to, "Just 'shut up' and step up. Do the right thing for a change."
"Unopposed Hirono moves on to general election"
http://www.staradvertiser.com/2018/08/11/breaking-news/unopposed-hirono-moves-on-to-general-election/
Hirono ran unopposed in the August Hawai'i Primary election for senate. Hirono, a former
Lt. Governor and U.S. representative in Congress. Not only is she extremely popular, she also has a serious kidney cancer diagnosis therefore many believe the public and the party wouldn’t have forgiven someone who
Isn't it ironic how all these famous people loved being around Trump before he became POTUS? |
Mazie will have a republican challenger come November, a retired systems engineer Ron Curtis, a political unknown. However after Hirono just alienated many of the male population with her remarks telling them all to, "shut up." This next election could be a real spoiler, an upset of the likes the democrats haven't seen since "The Donald" defeated Hillary in 2016.
Imagine if the roles were reversed and a male senator had said to the women of our country,"Just 'shut up' and step up. Do the right thing for a change."
There would have been a public lynching and the 'Me too' movement would be up in arms and would had called for that senator to resign. His name would be tarnished, he would be shamed on the national news and talk show circuit.
We are taught from early on that little girls are suppose to be made of "sugar and spice and every thing nice."
Let me tell you, that rhyme from my childhood is as false as Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy.
There is a double standard that woman are to be believed and men are just slobs and liars.
Men can also be sexually assaulted and often times are, but when they report it are usually laughed at because men are suppose to be macho and enjoy any kind of sex no matter what--- that's what testosterone allegedly does for you.
Ten years ago
a neighbor woman broke into my home and forced herself on me. I had another female neighbor as a witness, we called the Kaua'i police department to report an assault. The cops came. I explained my neighbor pushed herself in and proceeded to talk dirty, forcing herself on me. Eventually I got her off and asked her to leave, she stumbled out. I said to the officers, if this was reversed you would probably arrest me? Your right, is there anything you would like us to do? Sure, I said, arrest her! They laughed, we can't do that, but if you want we will go talk to her. They went to her home, knocked on her door, she never answered, end of story.
There are good decent men and good decent women in this world. A public figure telling half the population to "shut up" is something that just 'ain't' pono, and something society should not tolerate.
America is in peril. Please pray for Mazie and America's crisis.

'Ceasefire time in the war on men'
There’s a war being waged against men. I’m making a subtle claim, I realise. Subtle in the same way that Dame Edna’s wardrobe and Cher’s hair are subtle, but then I’ve never been one for shilly-shallying around.
A war on men. Grubby, dishonest and destructive. A war without cause and without honor (as are many) and in this case, driven by a particularly strong thirst for blood. It is vengeance fueled and focused. This war doesn’t care who it discredits and, in terms of reputation, disembowels. Why? Because, feelings.
Where’s my proof, I hear you say. Well, to start with there’s this one chap called Brett who was verbally and, in all ways other than physically, flayed en route to his now confirmed seat on the US Supreme Court. That’s one fairly solid example.
On that, let’s settle some things.
Just because Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the bench after claims of sexual assault against him were unproved, doesn’t mean he won. Nobody won. Especially not his accuser, a woman dragged reluctantly into the hateful public melee. Read more;

Justices Clearance Thomas and Ruth Bader Ginsberg at the recent swearing in ceremony of Brett Kavanaugh.... Worthy of a Pulitzer! ;-) |
Rumor has it that President Trump has Judge Judy on his short list as a nomination when Ginsberg retires! ;-) |

No one who has an opinion to express should be asked to "shut up", including Ms. Mazie. I feel fortunate to live in a country where everyone has the right to express an opinion. In this case, Mazie may not have thought through the possible ramifications. Does she have a father, husband, brother, or colleague who has always spoken and acted appropriately? Sure, we see and hear news all the time, that people have perpetrated terrible crimes, but note that not all the accused are male! And crimes are sensationalized by the media, because it apparently sells advertising and brings readership or fans. The #metoo movement is completely unnecessary. Every male and female can speak up. In fact, I am female, and I fear that the #metoo movement has encouraged some women who were not victims to lie, just to support the movement.
Many of us remain silent because I was told that it was my FAULT and this happend to me when I was 11 years old. Told my Mom and because he was an UNKO and Drinking he didnt MEAN IT 😢 this is why many dont REPORT IT
To my fellow Hawaii friends Mazie Hirono needs to retire. I thought she’s a good person tell she interferes the Kavanaugh’s confirmation. Read this article before you decide.
Talking about woman’s movement to shut up 🤐it depends on what the issues are. The media’s now a days can’t be trusted to my opinion as long as they can sell their fake stories that’s all it matters. I voted Mazie Hirono believing she’s a good person convincing me to vote democrats only cuz republicans were raised taxes and Etc. I’m so disappointed when I saw Mazie Hirono in the news critizing Brett Kavanugh and doing this kind of movement. I come to the conclusion she’s one of the #cleantheswamp for the trump movements. How did she come up on this kind of movement “shut up” she needs to look at the facts before she open herself supporting a lie that never happens. Everyone has the right to voice their opinions. Yes Kavanaugh admitted he drinks and love beers it doesn’t mean his a rapist. So all men drinks beers were rapist ? I’m a woman and love beers does that made me a men rapist ? Mazie Hirono shouldn’t be involved in this unless she’s being told to do so. Ow I forgot she’s a democrats they help it’s other to keep their positions. She should retire before she gets exposed herself. She’s gonna be just like John McCain who did not amend his mistakes tell death do as part for Democrat’s for 💰it’s time for a change Bring Back America. #VoteRed ##Trump2020 #VoteRepublican #CleanTheSwamp
In reply Lesa Evaimalo It happens to me I was physically abused by my father and my big brothers and left for dead same as one of my little sister. In the old days ADHD is not recognized we both can’t help ourselves of being so active and get hit and stump you can name it how they discipline in the old days. But it made me the way I am now. Discipline helpful respectful unto others.
Kimo,
Trump spreads racism, misogyny and militarism.
Under Trump we are headed into World War Three as soon as the financial bubble bursts and it's more obvious that the ecosystem is dying.
I hope your'e his idiotic tweets.

I'm sure Mazie wouldn't want people to tell her to shut up.
Great article Kimo. Totally agree - we are in peril.
I agree. If any man had said that to women, there would have been a public lynching
After hearing Mazie Hirono speak, I, as a woman, would never vote for her again.
Vote Ron Curtis for Hawaii Senate. We have a choice. I believe Mazie Hirono may have sealed her fate with that speech?
Vote Her out
Time to place some one that care for people and not politics or group issue think for the good of all - To the politician in hawaii watch out you better think about who you serve and who you work for

Maybe the reason many republican men don’t speak up is that they’re labeled as whipped wimps by a few malevolent jerks in their party? Nonetheless true heroism is standing up to the bullies when the repercussions are terrible, I haven’t seen any strength in their party for since johnson, it’s just a reality show.

WOW Kimo, i have a hugely renewed respect for you and THIS writing which totally exceeds other writings you have posted. The longer you live here, the more that you will observe all that is Hewa Loa and needs to be dismissed from all moku, especially illegally occupying u.s.a. militaropoliticocorporates and nonprofit corporates who will be leaving shortly. 90-day exit strategy in the forefront.

Yup, we males are so oppressed. We have no voice. Women have all the power and authority and are constantly forcing themselves on us defenseless males – they just laugh and grab us by the balls.
SMH.

Kimo, your comments are right on. When I heard her say those words, I wondered what world she was living in. I’ve been a loving caregiver for my late wife for almost a decade. There are many like me that felt insulted. This was worse than being called a “deplorable” by Hillary. Vote for her opponent.

Kimo is spot on in his criticism of our Senators comment. It was both unprofessional and showed her true colors, which are not Red , white and blue. The new double standard that the left has developed is both dangerous and divisive to the country. Pitting people against one another based on race, color, sex or any other criteria is both wrong and diametrically opposed to the very principles that this country was founded upon. A vote against her is a vote for the return of civility in our nation.

“Yup” Hypocrisy channeled from the top down to state level. Democrats have ruined our way of thinking, our way of life and continue to tell us how we should feel. I believe we are on the edge, and hope for a big turn around in the mid terms as well as overall. God Bless America
