The legislation has passed the U.S. House and is pending in the Senate. ///////////// if this passes then soon the hawaiians will be talking reparations and the mexican atzlans will be talking about breaking off the US southwest from the rest of the country all nice and legal like because they will have a precdent in hawaii.
Are there any casinos in Hawaii?
As far as Aztlan goes, all the folks pushing that also subscribe to Lowrider. It's all in English.
These guys are simply into BS. Besides, even if we gave them land we keep the water and they die of thirst.
*snicker*
Eeek! She doesn’t even have a sweet smile, like Liliuokalani. Hawaii deserves better than a Polynesian Hillary Clinton.
Big Kahuna Kasino - our slots are the loosest in town!
A monarchy is not "a Republican Form of Government." However, as William Rawle noted:
The principle of representation, although certainly the wisest and best, is not essential to the being of a republic, but to continue a member of the Union, it must be preserved, and therefore the guarantee must be so construed. It depends on the state itself to retain or abolish the principle of representation, because it depends on itself whether it will continue a member of the Union. To deny this right would be inconsistent with the principle on which all our political systems are founded, which is, that the people have in all cases, a right to determine how they will be governed.

If the Hawaiians adopt a monarchy, they will no longer be able to "continue a member of the Union"...
Must I be the One to say it?

GUILTY !
Being ignorant, may I ask why?
No loss, less BS to deal with.
Click the link, read the thread. AP extortion.
Show me the MONEY!!! The Hawaiians want their own kingdom, tax free status, right to sue the US ad infinitum, keep the welfare checks coming and all at the US taxpayer expense. A Dimocrap President and Congress will guarantee that.
AP wants to charge per word for linking to their stories...
If you click on the link in my post above you can read all about it. There are also some threads about this in Breaking News.
Question: what if the local newspaper reprints the AP article, can the article still be reprinted without repercussion using the local newspaper’s reference?
