The House of Representatives is poised to pass the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act (known in the Senate as the “Akaka Bill”), the apogee of an aggressive multiculturalism that has manifested itself in local, state, and federal legislation in the last two decades. The bill faces a certain White House veto, but it’s unclear whether there are enough votes in the Senate to sustain it. If the Senate overrides the veto, it will speed the country’s embrace of a form of post-nationalism (already held by many elites) — a confederation of various races, ethnicities and interest groups competing for special privileges, exemptions and recognition.
The Akaka Bill creates a race-based government for native Hawaiians. Even its supporters don’t deny that the bill could lead to outright secession. In the meantime, the bill will produce a regime of racial preferences, reparations, and lawsuits fueled by ethnic grievance, victimhood, and entitlement.
The Akaka Bill is just the most audacious manifestation of an accelerating trend toward elevating racial/ethnic identity over American citizenship. Hyphenated-Americans have existed throughout our history; Americans have never suffered from a shortage of ethnic, cultural or regional pride. But for most of that history official primacy wasn’t given to race/ethnicity; and when such primacy was accorded, it supported the loathsome institutions of slavery, segregation and Jim Crow, institutions eradicated at a staggering price in lives, blood and societal upheaval.

if this stupid bill goes through it spells the slow death of the USA.
A caca bill...............
It’s always about fake race issues with them. They wouldn’t know how to do the right thing if it rose up and slapped them in the face. Not such a bad idea. Maybe some sense could be knocked into them.
unfortunately this is what happens when you have homosexuals having such power over the public discourse as they do today.
e pluribus faggotom
its indefensible.
certainly the butt puckers won’t defend it. their focus is on normalizing homosexuality for school children in public schools —as they have done in California — and thereby making a mockery of government. a government debased is not in much position to say no
people can smell weakness.
therefor these stupid bills will become more frequent.
The Macaca bill?
If it passes, I want to see a “Texkaka” bill in front of the Senate next session. Self-rule for native Texans!
Native Hawaiians are about as racist as they come.
Us whiteys are known as "howlies" to them, and they have no problem saying it to your face.
The Muslims, the illegals, and the gay mafia know this in spades.
Haole is not a racist term. It originally meant simply foreigner ... back when the islands were ‘discovered’ by European seafarers. Later it came to mean white person.
it’s just more political push which ultimately is anti-white
we sure cured racism didn’t we?
us crackers only made ourselves a bumbling weak guilty always acquiescing target for victim brats
“Even its supporters don’t deny that the bill could lead to outright secession.”
And then the dumb sh!ts will be picked off by the Chicoms or whoever thinks controlling Hawaii might gee, I don’t know, somehow be beneficial to their evil agenda.
We must fight against apartheid.
