Elba Was Not A Bad Idea
Category: Right On!
I am compiling a list of evildoers and bad actors who should be banished to Elba, the little island off the coast of Italy. The idea came to me when I saw this Boston.com article:
N.H. man banished from state for 3 years
Jeffrey Phillips had lived half his life in New Hampshire, but this week he was given a few hours by authorities to gather his belongings and then was sent across the border and told not to return for three years.Phillips, 56, was banished from the Granite State for threatening the judge assigned to his divorce case. Tempers often flare in such cases, but prosecutors said yesterday that Phillips's threat to shoot the judge in the head, scribbled in a note, was an attack on "the very fabric of the constitutional system."
So, like Napoleon Bonaparte and other enemies of the state sent into exile before him, Phillips left his home in Kingston, N.H., journeying to Massachusetts on Thursday.
So far I have around 5 individual citizen exiles, several government departments and agencies, a short list of corporations and a Vice President to ship out. All of my nominees, in my opinion, have attacked "the very fabric of the constitutional system." My fear is that the plan will be labeled hogwash and delayed until the 2008 election.

Problem with sending them to Elba is that they come back and raise an army again. Whats needed is a St. Helena.
