House Passes Native Hawaiian Bill

The US House of Representatives just passed the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization act of 2007. This bill would give Indigenous Hawaiian the right to form a governing entity that could negotiate with the feds on their behalf. Bush wants to veto it. The New Republic thinks the act is racist and could lead Hawaii on the path to secession. Why the dreaded cancer of separatism could spread even to the 48 states themselves!

This is fine and dandy by me. I'd love to have my own autonomous oblast.
