Why should anyone help or donate monies to the Samoan relief fund when it has been proven that much of the federal monies sent to Samoa the past several years to strengthen their emergency warning system were used to buy luxury items e.g. flat screen tvs. etc....When Gus Hannemann was interviewed on TV recently, all he said was stop picking on my peoples in Samoa. Yes, Hannemann, I'm pretty sure your pockets were lined with federal monies, too......Of course, its easy to make accusations devoid of proof but when the federal govt. ceased funds to Samoa, you know they had evidence to prove otherwise. TALOFA!!!

I'm assuming you won't be donating anytime soon to local fund raises for families still in need in Samoa huh? Now that you've vented, kindly remove yourself so we can keep posting and encouraged Samoans and the Good Samaritans in Aloha Land to keep donating.

If you want to fry a bigger fish, voice your opinions to Washington D.C. via our local senators and congressmen about the billions and billions of dollars the "savior" in the White House is wasting on this stimulus i.e. "porkulus" bill your liberal friends have wasted. I hope you benefited from the Cash for Clunkers program... LOL

Why do you want me removed from this blog?? Are you afraid that THE TRUTH HURTS?? People will donate based on their own independent decision-making and good conscience? To tell me that I should kindly remove myself from this blog is to say that maybe there is some truth in my statements. I don't know where you're coming from concerning the stimulus in Washington D.C. as that is not the issue here but even if it is, some of that stimulus monies went to SAMOA many months ago to support the emergency warning system but it never was used for that purpose. I WONDER WHY?????

Now you know why Mufi is no different from his brother Gus, they are both crooks. Thats why I don't even trust Mufis rail as its only to benefit his unions and himself. I guess it runs in da family...

Gus Hanneman owns a consulting firm in Honolulu, one employee, salary $200,000/year. Who pays that or is he a closet train expert.

$13 million sent by US was to be used for Tsunami warning system. According to GH was spent for plasma tvs, furniture, vehicles. Hanneman admitted it on tv news in Hawaii. Samoans heard him say he likes nice things and wants to look good. Sound familiar.

So why would he not be held responsible for lives and property lost? Feel sorrow for those relying and trusting this person for their safety.

Of course we all know the Pelosi family owns the Chicken of the Sea cannery in PagoPago.
That is Pelosi as in Nancy, third highest in our government.

Samoans shoul;d be ashamed at this rip off of tax payers and the murder of human life. But most of them are defending their actions claiming other cultures cannot judge them. Same old, same old garbage.

Am I denying there's corruptions in ASG? Is there corruptions in our own backyard or mainland for that matter? Are you so righteous to keep pointing at your brother's faults? Take a good long look at the mirror before you answer... lol

As for removing yourself, you are so so smart you've totally missed my point?!?!?! Let me stressed it again. IF YOU'RE NOT DONATING TO THE CAUSE, SHUT THE FAKA UP...
