I know he has his hands full in Iraq, but it looks like we have a little rebellion on our hands right here at home. Here’s the new map of the American west featuring the “free and independent Lakota nation.” Better bring your passport if you want to visit Mt. Rushmore this summer.
Update: A friend of the WWS writes in:
Given that Lakota has “rebelled,” the plain terms of the Constitution (Art. I, Sec. 9, Cl. 2) allow for the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus! “The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it.” OK, so this may call for a rather generous reading of “public safety,” but, hey, that’s what The Living Constitution is all about, right?
