I think our governor has his priorities a little mixed up.

I liked to smoke a cigar at the end of my deployments as a kind of celebration with a few comrades before heading home. Then I celebrated when I retired, and again when I graduated from Chaminade University. Now every Sunday night you can find me having a cup of coffee and a stogie with a few close friends.

Gov. Josh Green recently said I couldn’t order cigars online because minors might smoke them. I don’t see kids smoking stogies. Now I hear he supports recreational marijuana.

Face it, governor, it’s not about protecting the keiki — it’s about the tax money!
