So do we now all display ribbons that are multicolored like a Hawaiian lei?

I guess he needs something lighthearted to cut the grimness of “keeping a boot on the neck of BP.”

Yawn......................Neo colonialist Barry Soetoro plays the ethnic card shortly before announcing more federal handouts to the conquered “savages.”

I’m sure Obama really admires King Kamehameha

Kamehameha , utterly destroyed all opposition to his hegemony.
Clubbing to death entire villages belonging to opposing Ali’i
and sometimes doing the honors personally .
He was a fine King of mass murder and mayhem and all cowered before his genocidal wrath . Bit by bit he destroyed all opposition , enslaving the regular kanaka of defeated Ali’i ,mus as todays muslims would like to do to the ‘infidels’.
All was well until he came up against 2 things : Typhoid fever and the Ka’ie’iewaho Channel , between Oahu and Kauai .Both stopped the mad King cold , every time .
How do I know these things? One of my great great great Uncles was the English language and military adviser to the Chief Ali’i of Kauai , Kaumuali’i.
Beaten by God and humbled Kamehameha finally relented , repented and a truce and treaty for Kauai was accepted .
Not a military defeat . Kamehameha’s offspring and namesakes were far kinder and enlightened than the original one , whom loved to sacrifice (live) victims to Ku , the God of war , and at his heiaus ( temples) to the shark god.
And for this gentleman , America is to join in celebration ?

What timing. Just as an election official finally has spilled the beans on him not having a birth certificate.

Of course he wants us to celebrate an all-powerful stone-age tyrant.

It's his friggin role model.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I bet this guy was a cannibal, too.

I’m of Hawaiian ancestry, born and raised on the islands, and I wouldn’t celebrate Kamehameha Day even if I live in Honolulu.
