HONOLULU – State officials in Hawaii on Monday said they have once again checked and confirmed that President Barack Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen, and therefore meets a key constitutional requirement for being president.

They hoped to stem a recent surge in the number of inquiries about Obama's birthplace.

"I ... have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen," Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said in a brief statement. "I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago."

Not.

2. I do not think it will either.. but the looney tunes on the right

are being shown for the disconnected sorts they are. Even Coulter backs away from them,. The good thing, is that the republican congresspeople who have been embracing birthers out of fear, this will dog them also.

3. This doesn't help really

they are only feeding the story and giving it more life for more discussion.


They checked it once back October 2008 and that is more than enough. This "rechecking" doesn't help - it just fuels argument.

Besides that, there is nothing at all available that they have to check, that hasn't already been released.

*Absolutely everything has been released* Why can't they get that through their thick heads?

If the right wing wants to check it again, all they have to do is pull up records that were released last year.
