Amazing. I don't.
And what did he do BEFORE 2007, when he first received his "copy"?

Apparently not. Now we need to see what it was based on, because it sure looks like there is no LF BC in the state of Hawaii's possession.

Can of worms, no doubt.

The media of course will try to ignore this latest little snafu.

Stop making stuff up. Why would he need to hint at anything? If he was going to lie about it, he would just lie about it.

Of course you know... even children not born in hospitals get "long forms." Right?

Or didn't you know that?

You mean the poll that says only 27% think he was not born in the US?

It was issued by the US State Department when he was 6.

He used other copies.

The Hawaiian DoH has called bull sh*t on that assertion.

Well, when he set out on this "mission" to prove obama was born in HI, I'm sure he thought everything was in order, but now might be finding he's missing a few vital documents, like the LF.


Of course you know... even children not born in hospitals get "long forms." Right?

Or didn't you know that?

Of course. So obama should have one, but the HI governor seems to be saying he doesn't.


You mean the poll that says only 27% think he was not born in the US?

No, the one that says only 42% think he is DEFINITELY born in the US.

Pay no attention to the headline, dive into the numbers;

"Probably" means doubt. That doubt will get even bigger if Abercrombie can't come through.

Apparently not.
US state department requirements for proof of birth:

*A certified birth certificate has a registrar's raised, embossed, impressed or multicolored seal, registrar's signature, and the date the certificate was filed with the registrar's office, which must be within 1 year of your birth. Please note, some short (abstract) versions of birth certificates may not be acceptable for passport purposes.


the hawaiian COLB meets this standard.

And another 29% think he was probably born here. The poll does not capture the percentage that really don't give a ****.

ah, fun with polls and definitions.

if the majority of people polled believe that george w bush was born in texas does that make it correct ?

do you definitely 100% know where/when you were born and who your mother is? how can you be 100% sure? you might want to talk to jack nicholson on this one. even DNA testing isn't 100%.

do i 100% know where/when obama was born. no. do i know beyond a reasonable doubt. yes. your definition of "doubt" includes unreasonable doubt.

Certainly does. That's what "no opinion" means. Poll adds up to 100%.

Probably born here, meaning they have doubts.

You don't really know much about polls, do you?

Or that they checked a box because they didn't know and didn't care.
