Comments on: WE’RE NOT ALONE.

I think if her position was anti-LH with a principled position and she voiced it unambiguously and fairly to the public, this would be much easier for her. However, this appears to be the start of a shameful and embarrassing spring, summer and fall for Kate. Quez: She needs that type of pressure, but let’s hope LH proponents keep it respectful.

I asked her about the LHP and she gave me the politicians fake smile and assured me that she was doing everything she can to get it renovated. When I told her that we don't need a renovation, we need the LHP, she blew me off. I told her that you don't want your legacy to be the one responsible for the Islanders moving to K.C. She then started to walk away, and I told her to not make plans for after Nov. because we're voting you off the island! I just ran in to Supervisor Kate Murray at my son’s little league opening day.

Could you give me a link or two so I can read for myself because as long as this process has been going on I haven't read one article that says anything remotely bad about it. If there is another point of view out there besides "It will create traffic" I would really love to hear about it. #75 BR, I’m curious as to what articles have been written against the LHP.

But let's no confuse opinion pieces with news pieces. Just because the paper has taken an official position in support of the project doesn't mean we won't ever see another negative news piece on the LH.

Looks like in the neighborhood of $18k! Great job Kate! So how much of the TOH tax payer money did she just waste by mailing 40,000.00 pamplets on using federal money that is not even available?
