The Akaka bill would create a race-based state in Hawaii.
President Obama speaks proudly of his childhood in Hawaii, so we wonder what the state's voters think of his support for a bill that would redistribute its wealth based on race. That's what would happen under the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act, which Congress is trying to sneak through in its final days this year.
Sponsored by Senator Daniel Akaka, the bill would transfer a percentage of public-owned lands to a native Hawaiian government within the state of Hawaii. The legislation would collect some 400,000 ethnic Hawaiians scattered across the country into a newly affiliated tribe, eventually endowed with the powers of a sovereign state, including freedom from state taxes and regulations and separate police power.
Proponents say the plan would duplicate the legal scenario set up for Native Americans, but the Akaka bill carves out new territory. Unlike Indian tribes made up of tightly knit populations that have lived together continuously, participation in the new group would be available to nearly anyone able to trace their roots back to a Native Hawaiian ancestor, no matter where they now reside. U.S. Civil Rights Commission member Gail Heriot told Congress in June that, "If ethnic Hawaiians can be accorded tribal status, why not Chicanos in the Southwest? Or Cajuns in Louisiana?"

Market value? Who besides the government is going to be in the market for military bases and national parks? Let's just do a straight up trade. The US takes the military assets and the Hawaiians can have everything else. Pull the Senators and Congressman and rework the flag.
Let those alive today PAY for the alleged sins of our Imperialist ancestors!
This folks is fascism. Hitler promoted the same thing , touting that Germans were exploited by the rest of Europe after WWI, as Aryans of a master race, undeserving of such racial discrimination. He called for a cleansing of the German homeland, 6 million Jews died.
So Obama wants all the racially impure OUT of Hawaii, and this is how it begins.Lets set up the ovens on Waikiki!
Long live Lebenschraum for Hawaiians. Whose next? Step right up you Scots and Irish descendants, but don't hold your breath. You are the WRONG color even though many of your ancestors were slaves and indentured servants in the colonial USA,but you WILL pay your taxes!!!! Or ELSE!!!!!!! Anyone whose in doubt that America is now controlled by a fascist Junta does not read history well. And Obama is playing far more than a "race card." Obama is a black power nationalist socialist whose ideology is bent on correcting the so called injustices of history, and making the descendants of the so called imperialists pay for them through wealth distribution and land grants.
And if you don't think so, just watch it all unfold before your unbelieving eyes.
I wonder what would haqppen if we removed all modern progress and technology which so called imperialism brought, and put the so called exploited away on their land grants from and progress produced by the so called Imperialist system. You know, loin cloths, and zero computers or wi fi? Would there be a gnashing of teeth? LOL. Effin idiots.
Akkka deserves more than a volley of ka ka.
One of the Left’s favorite techniques is to divide people from one another, and then set themselves up as the broker.
This is not the post-racial America it’s the post-Constitutional America. This in particular is post-Civil Rights Act America. The liberal/progressive/communist movement is making everything race-based.
Then we have the secular religionists who want heaven on earth. You know them well.
Yes, people do not know that the best for all is through a civil society,not a top down tyrannical government allegedly establishing a Utopian god realm.
The seculariust religionists are incoherant, they do not remember that the Utopian view they propound will eventually secure no religion at all.
The liberal/progressive/communist left puts all of their faith in government. I guess the illustrious history of governments is inspiring to them. Especially communist governments.
They are incapable of a paradigm change.

Nice realm for a masochist. A narcissistic masochist actually. I wonder if 0bama likes getting his ass kicked as much as he likes getting it kissed?
He better. That's the script he's writing for himself.
LOL.
I'm all for justice for ingrates.
But I have yet to meet even one FReeper on all the campaigns I've worked on in the past two decades. (I know there are FReepers who work hard on campaigns; I just haven't met any in my district.)
They aren't there.
The lazy, selfish ***** don't care, and all they offer are truly lame excuses such as "they're all corrupt." Well, they're not, *******. But by your complete and total lack of fruits we know ye.
America -- a great idea, didn't last. Add a lot of FReepers to the cause.
I hope yu are wrong this time. Certainly in 2004, the Broward County freepers were instrumental in storming the Dem crooked recount ooffice and insistingthat Republican monitors be present. That in fact was a turning poiint that swung the electiuon for Bush.
Don’t sell ourselves too short. Its not business as usual anymore.
hyou live in a leftist state like I do. Very few Freepers
in either of our states, comparatively speaking.
But as you say,there are a lot of Freeper couch potatos , or overly busy Freepers who are here to stay up on events but are not involved. How can we change that?
But in some respects that's not necessary. When you have clarity on a thought, and you hold that thought with no hesitation, doubt or fear, it's like the toning of a bell. Others will pick it up so just keep sending.
That is my unaccomplished opinion anyway.

LOL, I can\’t write what i want here without breaking samaya. Love yah bro!
They already have one its called Niihau. Incidentally their shell lei are extremely valuable insomuch as the craftswomen who produce them are a dying group as no younger women are learning the craft. The Lei's are beautiful. The usual mark of an authentic Niihau shell lei is the cowrie clasp along with a letter detailing lineage of the maker.
Pun not intended but it works!
