Kudos to Kirby, and his lovely wife Madeleine. This pair makes extraordinary virtue look and feel like the ordinary and expected thing. Good humor, kindness, patience, consideration of others . . . no one could ask for more in a friend or acquaintance. Kirby deserves this success.

Shaw, your first job assignment is to go around kicking as much Democrats hacks you can find around you.

If unable to reach, you are hereby authorized to run over their foot.

Practically all who surround you are either Hawaii Democrats or lackeys thereto.

I want you to also block the elevator when you see a bunch of those aforementioned cronies trying to get in too.

Don't forget to spill a bunch of coffee on them every chance you get.

Join up with them, pretend you are "one of them" but be just like one of them, pretending to be Democrat, but actually something else. In their case, socialists. In your case, strive to be something more than just another Hawaii Democrat hack.

When you see Brian Schatz, tell him some us think he is a total j.e.r.k.

Good Luck!

What a jerk you are. Your comments are the complete opposite of what Kirby stands for.

How disappointing.

You telling us Shaw is just another Hawaii Democratic hack like you?

I find that hard to believe, unless you speak for him because you feel sorry for him because he is disabled and no can talk for himself.
AND j.e.r.k.s, like you, huh?

So, what you really saying is that all this being in the wheel chair is just a "feel sorry for me" or "look, i different because I in the wheel chair" but "I still was Democrat hack. Please like me."

Hmmm... That's a novel approach.

As always, news clips like this about people dealing with adversity is inspiring to many, and this nation would be so much better, if all those facing hardships had drive and determination like Mr. Shaw. This is what is being portrayed here, and for those of you inclined to do so, please save your rants for another time.

Republicans, if you are an example, have paraplegia of the brain, no rehab for that except an avoidance of home schooling can be preventative.

Lol.

I not one Republican, fool.

I just HATE the Democrats of Hawaii. Look at Mufi. As what the Democrats gave to us.

But, if the Republicans of Hawaii allow me for "stick finger" at the Democrats, I go for that.

Heck, even if was Kim Jong Il and the North Koreans, I might even consider them too over the Hawaii Democrats. Even Idi Amin look better than mufi right now.

If you're busy with a last-minute Christmas shopping trip it will be easy to lose track of how much you're spending, particularly if you're in a panic and desperate to tick off every name on your list. However, you might be in for a nasty shock later on when you tot up the massive amount of money that you parted with. So try to keep a running total in your head or stick to a strict budget for each gift.
