Here's an odd Obama controversy I hadn't yet heard about. Apparently, the Lamb of Chicago has not released his Hawaii birth certificate despite several media requests. Jim Geraghty thinks it would end several persistent rumors concerning his birth.
Although Geraghty makes some good points, Exurban League's research interns have uncovered several reasons Obama is keeping it under wraps.
Top Ten Reasons Obama Won't Release His Birth Certificate
10. Despite the claims of his supporters, it was not technically a virgin birth.
9. Full name is Ayatollah Mubarack Hussein Obama-Khomeni bin Laden.
8. Actual birth date would reveal he's a Virgo, and those people are %#&*@! CRAZY.
7. Accidentally shredded it while going through his Rezko mortgage records.

See my post 20.
And did he sign up for Selective Service?
Why is this coming. . .soooo late? Interesting. . .(Hillary getting this stuff out?)
More likely, the birth certificate lists his religion as Muslim!
No, it’s not mandatory to have a birth certificate. However, birth records are public records, and any researcher can search the registers.
Otherwise; we will have more Candidates from Hawaii...with Mexican accents, coming up the Demrat ranks.
That’s a good question. How can he be sworn in if congress don’t know that is actually eligible?
But I venture that its probably a trap. He holds it off in the hopes that the GOP makes a big deal out of it and then when he releases it its all OK. I can’t imagine that his party would let him get this far without assurance.
The only way to avoid the trap is to let Bob Barr do the muckraking on behalf of the Libertarian party, possibly attempt to have his name stripped from ballots in several of the 50 states on the grounds that he has not proven his eligibility. Hey, maybe he’s really only 29 years old?
I would; but think they are tired of hearing suggestion from me. . .so will give it a rest; though, not for long, of course.
Doesn’t being born in the US make you Natural Born?
George Soros can accomplish the seeimingly impossible. Perhaps he has. . .
Yeah perhaps there is another way to obtain it - the Selective Service should have a copy, as should the State Department (I presume he has an American passport in which case he needed to prove his citizenship).
There should be at least 3 places to find it.
And if Mr “I don’t hold my hand over my heart when saying the pledge allegiance” did not sign up for selective service, it should be a scandal.
But again I gotta think that the party elders vetted him better than this.
He’s not a Virgo.
He’s a Vertigo...

About Vital Records Vital records (birth, death, marriage, and divorce certificates) for events that occurred in Hawaii are received and preserved by the Office of Health Status Monitoring, a unit of the Department of Health. In Hawaii, access to vital records is restricted by statute (HRS §338-18). Certified copies of these records may be issued to authorized individuals and used for such diverse purposes as school entry, passports, Social Security participation, driver’s licenses, employment, sports participation, survivor’s benefits, proof of property rights, and other needs.
He’s so pretty, he was born a she.
Original birthplace scratched out and “Bethlehem” written in in crayon.
Well, since we don’t care if you’re a citizen to vote, this just follows.
“Natural born” meaning in the constitution cannot be changed by passing a law.
He won’t release; then his campaign should be suspended.
