The Akaka Bill: It’s Baaack


The Honolulu Star-Bulletin has this story on Sen. Akaka's plans to reintroduce the bill to create a racist state within Hawaii. The Honolulu Advertiser has not seen fit to inform its readers of this development:


U.S. Sen. Daniel Akaka will again seek passage of a native Hawaiian recognition bill possibly as early as this week, some seven months after a procedural defeat on the Senate floor.

Cheered by his new Democratic majority, [the idea of the racial balkanization of America gets these people happy] Akaka was rounding up signatures of both new and old supporters last week. As soon as he gets what is a politically viable number, Akaka said, he will introduce the so-called Akaka Bill.

Haunani Apoliona, Office of Hawaiian Affairs chairwoman, said, "It's good news that immediate introduction will be occurring."

She added: "We look forward to passage early rather than later in 2007. There's a lot at stake for the present and future of native Hawaiians."

There is indeed a lot at stake for the nomenklatura of OHA concerning the passage of the Akaka Bill. OHA is refreshingly candid on what's at stake besides the ability of the neo-Alii to lord it over the makaainana. The Star-Bulletin quotes the OHA website as saying:


"Without question, the central thrust of the bill -- especially the overarching goal of establishing a sovereign native Hawaii government, recognized by the United States and assuming responsibility for the significant financial and land resources currently administered by state agencies -- remains completely intact," Wilkinson said in an opinion posted on the OHA Web site.

Ah yes, unaccountable power and the ability to loot state resources without oversight, OHA can hardly wait.

On the positive side the reintroduction of the Akaka Bill will give Governor Linda Lingle yet another opportunity to sell her soul to OHA. What Lingle will receive in return for this bargain is anyone's guess. I bet the report based on data from the US Census Bureau's American Community Survey that indicates Hawaiians (and everyone else) do better when bereft of government race-based "help" will be ignored by Akaka supporters. That's not what it's about.
