UPDATE: Abercrombie Admits Failure To Discover Obama Birth Certificate - Veteran reporter Mike Evans has described in a radio interview how Hawaii Governor and close friend Neil Abercrombie was shocked at his failure to discover Obama’s birth certificate after using his power to search hospital records, an outcome that could seriously impact President Obama’s re-election campaign.

Hawaii law bars release of Obama birth info

(AP) – 20 hours ago, TODAY

HONOLULU (AP) — A privacy law that shields birth certificates has prompted Democratic Gov. Neil Abercrombie to abandon efforts to dispel claims that President Barack Obama was born outside Hawaii, his office says.

State Attorney General David Louie told the governor that privacy laws bar him from disclosing an individual's birth documentation without the person's consent, Abercrombie spokeswoman Donalyn Dela Cruz said Friday.

"There is nothing more that Gov. Abercrombie can do within the law to produce a document," said Dela Cruz. "Unfortunately, there are conspirators who will continue to question the citizenship of our president."

Abercrombie, who was a friend of Obama's parents and knew him as a child, launched an investigation last month into whether he can release more information about the president's Aug. 4, 1961 birth. The governor said at the time he was bothered by people who questioned Obama's birthplace for political reasons.

But Abercrombie's attempt reached a dead end when Louie told him the law restricted his options.

Hawaii's privacy laws have long barred the release of a certified birth certificate to anyone who doesn't have a tangible interest.

So-called "birthers" claim Obama is ineligible to be president because they say there's no proof he was born in the United States, with many of the skeptics questioning whether he was actually born in Kenya, his father's home country.

Hawaii's health director said in 2008 and 2009 that she had seen and verified Obama's original vital records, and birth notices in two Honolulu newspapers were published within days of Obama's birth at Kapiolani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital in Honolulu.

Health Department spokeswoman Janice Okubo again confirmed Friday that Obama's name is found in its alphabetical list of names of people born in Hawaii, maintained in bound copies available for public view.

That information, called index data, shows a listing for "Obama II, Barack Hussein, Male," according to the department's website.

"The index is just to say who has their records within the department. That's an indication," Okubo said. "I can't talk about anyone's records."

The Obama campaign issued a certificate of live birth in 2008, an official document from the state showing the president's birth date, city and name, along with his parents' names and races.

Hawaii governor claims record of Obama's birth 'exists in archives' but can't produce the vital document

LONDON DAILY MAIL
20th January 2011

Pressure was mounting on Hawaii Governor Neil Abercrombie today amid increasing confusion over whether President Obama was born there.

Abercrombie said on Tuesday that an investigation had unearthed papers proving Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961.

He told Honolulu's Star-Advertiser: 'It actually exists in the archives, written down,' he said.

But it became apparent that what had been discovered was an unspecified listing or notation of Obama's birth t

How could he be listed as "white" or anything else if nobody on Earth has ever seen his birth certificate?

You may as well claim it lists him as "Martian", because that would make exactly as much sense.

Hello,

Sometimes I wonder if Pirate himself reads these odd stories, or if he is simply paid to publicize them.

In 1980- 31 years ago- at the age of... nineteen? At the age of nineteen, a forward thinking Obama apparently discussed his Presidential eligibility with a soldier.

That's something.

I wonder why the conspiracy theories never get the same scrutiny from the tinfoil hat crowd as reality does?

Barack Hussein Obama II was born August 4, 1961 at the Coast Province General Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya and not in Hawaii as he claims. This may explain why he refuses to allow Hawaii to release of a long-form copy of his birth certificate. A high resolution copy of Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate is available for free download at WasObamaBornInKenya.com

The fascinating story of how Lucas Daniel Smith obtained a certified copy of Obama's birth certificate directly from the birth hospital on February 19, 2009 is included as part of his 'July 4, 2010 Letter to Congress', which is also available for free download at the same website.

Anthony, I resent that. I am a member of the tinfoil hat crowd, and I attest that I give each conspiracy theory my best scrutiny.

For example:

The ex-Marine gave his "testimony" in an anonymous letter to the anonymous author of this blog:

http://nygoe.wordpress.com/2009/11/17/barack-obama-sighting-hawaii-198
0/

Then someone using the username "Race Bannon" claimed authorship of that letter on this forum:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2397370/posts?page=1

The story got circulated wildly on the internet by Birthers who believed the whole story without a shred of corroboration, without even knowing "Race Bannon's" real name.

This would be like Sockpuppet telling us he met Palin in the wilds of Alaska, where she made sweet love to him and confessed during pillow talk that she was really born in Canada and could never run for President.

So...not all Tinfoil Hatters are equally gullible, thank you very much.

PN's at least intelligent/sane enough to write coherent sentences.

A Loughner post would be more like "If Commie Jews can make a currency, they can also make a second currency and a third currency. Therefore if Commie Jews can make a currency they can make a second currency and a third currency, are you literate listener?"

If I took anything in PN threads seriously I'd find the comparison disgusting.

Kiki, and several others on RWED, would beg to differ.

Not too long ago, she said that if she created a sock puppet that agreed with me on everything, then invented some outlandish bullcrap conspiracy theory, I would rally behind the theory hook, line, and sinker. And she is not the only one who has this image of me. Many people here have accused me of being indiscriminately skeptical of EVERYTHING mainstream, of automatically favoring conspiracy theories, and of being generally without rational thought.

In other words, to people like Kiki (I shall not name names, but there is probably at least a good handful of RWEDers who agree with her), I am the poster child of the non-schizophrenic faction of the Tinfoil Hat crowd.

I'm ok with that. My only defense is not that I don't belong in that crowd, but that I am somewhat more rational than they think.

Well, shit, I'd pay good money to see that - maybe we could take up a collection ?

Oh, and speaking of skepticism vs mainstream belief, especially given the recent push to dimiss Wakefield - something which kind of amuses me in a dark sorta way given that so many of his detractors are notorious for using even poorer scientific method in their own often financially biased studies, hey pot, meet kettle...

Well, according to my contacts at the Geekfarm, researchers at a North Carolina university are conducting their own study with proper methodology this time and it does in fact appear to confirm most if not all of Wakefields assertions, with the caveat that of course said study is not yet complete.

Myself, I think they're coming at it from the wrong angle, as usual, since the keystone here isn't how unsafe a medicine is, but rather how we CAN make it as safe as possible, and allow folk to make an informed choice, but that doesn't fill the Big Pharma coffers, now does it ?

That's what offends me the worst, there *are* safer ways to do this, single dose, non-preservative units *are* available, and yet customer safety is compromised for profit, which is IMHO, what the medical profession should focus on and decry, it'd seem a common sense proposal.

Only reason I don't think this is a waste of time is that if we do manage to effectively identify beforehand those at risk of harm from medications, we can seek alternate solutions for them, and maybe in the doing, make ALL medicine safer by that much - no one should have to die or suffer injury as "collateral damage" for the alleged safety of others in a medical sense, that's just unacceptable to me.

Of course, the complexity of my argument is often lost to folk who seem to think skepticism of something there is plenty of reason to be dubious about is unwarranted - but having been *right* several times on this when I damn well wished to hell I wasn't...

I think I'll hold on to that skepticism, thanks.

Signy alleges that PN has paranoid schizophrenia. I understand it is a very debilitating and isolating mental illness, but it is also a fact that many tinfoil-hat-wearers do have paranoid schizophrenia. (I also know a good number of people with schizophrenia and am sympathetic to the sensitivity issue.)

My comment was not meant to make fun of PN or persons with schizophrenia. It was merely to assert that I am not schizophrenic.

Well said. Well said.

You know how I feel about Wakefield. Incidentally, his results have had independent support from other studies several times before now.

None of it establishes a cause-and-effect relationship, but these studies certainly highlight a need for better and more studies on this topic. What they don't deserve is the witchhunt and categorical denial.

In real life, I might agree with you.

Here on RWED, on THIS forum, saying I make any kind of sense is a great kindness. IMHO.

Abercrombie Admits Failure To Discover Obama Birth Certificate

January 26, 2011

Veteran reporter Mike Evans has described in a radio interview how Hawaii Governor and close friend Neil Abercrombie was shocked at his failure to discover Obama’s birth certificate after using his power to search hospital records, an outcome that could seriously impact President Obama’s re-election campaign.

Evans’ revelations contradict official claims that Abercrombie abandoned his search for birth records relating to Obama because of privacy laws that bar him from disclosing an individual’s birth documentation without the person’s consent.

The birth certificate issue has rocketed back into the public limelight in recent weeks as a result of World Net Daily and specifically New York Times best selling author Jerome Corsi’s continuing investigation into the controversy, reports that have been afforded ample coverage by the hugely popular Drudge Report website.

On Monday, Corsi reported how, “Former Hawaii elections clerk Tim Adams has now signed an affidavit swearing he was told by his supervisors in Hawaii that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Barack Obama Jr. in Hawaii and that neither Queens Medical Center nor Kapi’olani Medical Center in Honolulu had any record of Obama having been born in their medical facilities.”

In a radio interview with KQRS-FM, reporter Mike Evans explained how he had been a close friend of Abercrombie’s for decades since he first met him when Abercrombie was a taxi driver in Honolulu. Evans said that the Governor would often talk about how he was a friend of Barack Obama’s Kenyan father and how he remembered Barack Obama as a little kid in Hawaii whom he referred to as “Barry”.

Evans said he spoke to Abercrombie’s office who told him that Abercrombie had used his power as Governor to search records from all the hospitals where babies were being delivered at the time of Obama’s birth and that, “There is no Barack Obama birth certificate in Hawaii – absolutely no proof at all that he was born in Hawaii,” said Evans, pointing out that Abercrombie purposefully conducted the investigation to try and quash claims that Obama was not born in the United States.

“Now he admits publicly that there is no birth certificate,” said Evans of Abercrombie.
Evans said that he asked Abercrombie what his first memory was of Barack Obama as a child and that Abercrombie told him he recalled seeing Obama playing in the T-Ball league when he was 5 or 6 years old.

“What about before that,” asked Evans, to which Abercrombie responded, ” I don’t really remember much before that,” a retort described by Evans as “very odd”. Evans said that Abercrombie was shocked when he failed to find the birth certificate, having steadfastly believed that Obama was born and raised in Hawaii.

The fact that the birther issue is again starting to snowball could prove disastrous for Obama’s re-election campaign, especially given the fact that Arizona state Rep. Judy Burges has introduced a well-supported bill that will require presidential candidates to prove their eligibility before being able to occupy the White House. Similar legislation is also being introduced in Montana, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Texas.

Article 2, Section 1 of the US Constitution states, “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President.”

White House Insider: Obama is Clueless. Totally Clueless

Obama is clueless. Totally clueless. I am not talking a little out of step here. I am talking the man has no idea what is going on around him. This is not coming from me. I am relaying it from some still around him on a regular basis. These people are getting increasingly concerned over just how “out of it”, that is the phrase repeated to me, Obama has become. His primary focus is now getting elected in ‘12. Everything else has been given over to Jarrett and her group. Everything. The president has no interest in policy. None. No interest in working legislation. None. No interest in forging a specific agenda. None. He is being told what he needs to say and that is it. That is the extent of his interest. “Just make it look good.” Exact words right there. President Obama is obsessed 24/7 with just “looking good”. If something goes well, he gets happy and outgoing. If something makes him look badly, he lashes out and pouts. The man is bouncing off both of those extremes even more now than he used to and it appears to be getting worse and worse. The word “manic” is being used more and more regarding his moods these days.

FYI there was a closed door meeting recently under the guise of discussions on Egypt. That meeting did not involve Egypt much if at all. This information is relayed second hand but I believe it to be completely reliable. Source told that meeting was run by Jarrett from start to end. Obama said very little. Asked no questions.

The primary focus was how to protect Obamacare so it was not a “liability” in 2012 campaign. White House already spending significant time/resources preparing legal argument for the Supreme Court case that is coming.

Second focus was apparently “birther” related. Jarrett expressed concern over possible newly passed eligibility requirements in states. If only one or two states clarify eligibility in order to run for office, White House will simply use those states as examples of “anti-Obama racism”. They would likely not win the electorals in those states regardless, but could use the scenario to gain sympathy and support over the challenge from other moderate states.

This is the tactic Jarrett and crew have prepared. She is worried though that if more than one or two states challenge the president’s eligibility, the issue would turn against them. Measures are being taken to make certain that does not happen. What those measures are, I don’t know at this point. Oh, and while discussion over eligibility was underway, Obama sat motionless. He said nothing. That strikes me as pretty damn odd don’t you think? People are discussing whether or not you are actually eligible to run for re-election in 2012 and you don’t say a word on the subject? “He just sat there with a weird little smile and didn’t say anything.” Go ahead and print that quote word for word. Others are now willing to let their observations be more known. Concern for the country is now winning over concern for their own political interests. Finally.

As stated before, Geithner is leaving. That was repeated to me again this past week.

11 States Will Demand Birth Certificates In 2012

Connecticut, SB291 require "that candidates for president and vice-president provide their original birth certificates in order to be placed on the ballot." That is needed to make sure the candidate "is a natural born United States citizen, prior to certifying that the candidate is qualified to appear on the ballot."

Georgia, HB37 not only demands original birth-certificate documentation, it provides a procedure for and declares that citizens have "standing" to challenge the documentation.

Indiana, SB114 to require candidates to provide a certified copy of their birth certificate and include an affirmation the

PN,

I know asking you to Snopes something before you post it is probably an unreasonable request. But surely you've got to know those certificates are fake.

Snopes is notoriously unreliable on anything with a political slant. Check them on 9.11 truth. Last I checked they said "FALSE: 9.11 happened the way the official story says" which is nonsense, since 7 of those 19 guys are still alive, one died in 2000, etc.

Still, the birther thing is moronic, and yet, Obama is still evil. Or the tool of evil. But I think he actually really believes in this as the path to the greater good, and that's just what they all believe. And if you believe that torture, tracking, detention, experimentation and the slaughter of civilians are on that path, then, well, you're probably evil.

Agreed. Which is why it would be unreasonable to ask PN to do it.

Some of their debunking points were wrong as well, such as Mombasa being part of Zanzibar. At the time, Mombasa was the capital of the British Protectorate, which included Zanzibar as well as Kenya. (Incidentally, if Obama were born in Mombasa, he would be a British subject, not a Kenyan one.)

But, they do appear to present quite compelling evidence of forgery of these certificates.

I had serious doubts because my hub says he was in Kenya in 1979, and even then, to his knowledge, they almost never issued birth certificates or registrations, and when they did, they were handwritten by the doctor and in Kiswahili, not printed and in English.

Sure glad I never bother to read PN's unending posts. What a waste of time THAT would have been! Surely he doesn't actually TYPE all that shit, he just cuts and pastes right?

Nothing so much fun as continuing to push irrtional conspiracies, eh, PN? Go for it...

Fair enough, though PN has posted before that Obama was a Brit for this very reason. I actually think he doesn't read everything he posts.
