Should He be Removed From Office?

Who is this guy, anyway?

 The "i" word is near vulgarity in a responsible legislature. No responsible legislator is apt to utter the word without extreme just cause. It's prudent to keep faith in the systems of checks and balances, outlined in our Constitutions, to keep potential tyrants at bay.
However, the word was uttered in our legislature, a couple of weeks ago, for the first time in our 54 years since statehood. Civil Beat was reassured that it had "nothing to do with Abercrombie" by State Senator Les Ihara--the peoples champion--who noticed that the Constitutional responsibilities of the legislature to set standards of impeachment had never been addressed; so introduced SB229 to get the ball rolling.

Governor Abercrombie has introduced (or supported) a number of measures into our state that undermine the democratic systems that our government was founded on. The Public Lands Development Corporation (PLDC), His Public Private Partnership Authority (PPPA), Harbors and Parks Development Authority, and a handful of early-learning bills...[they keep coming] ...that, if passed into law, would alter the fabric of our government beyond recognition to what we have known in the past.

That's why we have the built-in checks and balances--just in case a Governor looses his mind while in office. But that's not the case here. All this stuff was premeditated; and while never clarified in his campaign for "A New Day in Hawaii." was the Governor's plan all along. Of course, if he had clarified these "New Day" details, he would have never been elected.

But hey!....that's politics. No justification for impeachment here. Politicians forget campaign promises all the time, once they're in office.

Except it goes further. All these wild ideas did not blossom in the mind of a Governor intoxicated by power. They can all be traced to here, here and here...and even, in a round-about way, to here...or in short, to the United Nations plan to save the Earth from humanity in the 21st century.

The United Nations is a foreign power--in fact, it is all foreign powers in one thick soup. And when one who is invested with administrative powers, such as Neil Abercrombie, attempts to supplant the Constitutional systems of the sovereign state to which he was elected--in this case, Hawaii--with the un-democratic doctrines of a foreign power, it can be safely defined as: "Treason".

When we look at SB229, which establishes the criteria for impeachment of Governor and Lieutenant Governor, we see, at the top of the list: "Treason". So, he qualifies.

But will the House recognize treason, when they see it....

To be continued...but not here.

Aloha...and good luck
