Hawaiian E Pluribus Unum Destroyed? Where’s the ACLU?

A report in today’s Walls Street Journal:

The Senate is poised to sanction the creation of a racially exclusive government by and for Native Hawaiians who satisfy a blood test. The new race-based sovereign that would be summoned into being by the so-called Akaka Bill would operate outside the U.S. Constitution and the nation's most cherished civil rights statutes.

It was not too long ago that the courts struck down the use of state government monies to fund exclusive schools for Hawaiian indigenous natives only. Now read (WSJ subscription required) how Hawaiian special interest is poised to destroy the concepts of a racially neutral society.

Update 8/21/05 Reader Lee provided in the Coments section the address for a detailed report on the proposed legislation. His address has a "." at the end of the ...pdf which should not be there. Here is the correct link: http://rpc.senate.gov/_files/Jun2205NatHawSD.pdf
Thank you Lee.
