First, a brief reminder from yesterdays Daily Right:
*Aloha Segregation, at NRO.
“A bill expected to pass the House today with overwhelming Democratic support would accomplish something peculiar for a liberal republic in the 21st century: It would partly disenfranchise a portion of one state’s residents, create a parallel government for those meeting a legislated criterion of ethnic purity, and would portend the transfer of public assets, land, and political power from those who fail to satisfy the standard of ethnic purity to those who do. For these reasons and many more, the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act richly deserves opposition.”
Emphasis mine. Just thought you’d like to know which Colorado Representatives voted to create a segregated state based on racial purity:
DeGette, Diana, Colorado, 1st – Yea
Lamborn, Doug, Colorado, 5th – Nay
Markey, Betsy, Colorado, 4th - Yea
Perlmutter, Ed, Colorado, 7th – Yea
Polis, Jared, Colorado, 2nd – Yea
Salazar, John T., Colorado, 3rd – Yea
Coffman, Mike, Colorado, 6th – Nay
In honor of our representatives votes on this issue, I think our state needs a new motto, don’t you?
