News sites swap Obama's birthplace like magic -UPI, Snopes change ..within hours of WND report
WND ^ | 7/9/09 | Joe Kouvacs

Posted on 07/08/2009 11:42:36 PM PDT by pissant

If you happened to read online news sites such as United Press International or the popular hoax-busting Snopes.com anytime up until Tuesday night, you would have seen definitive statements that President Obama was born at the Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.

But checking back now, both sites are suddenly providing an entirely different location, the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children, also in the capital of the Aloha State.

Within hours of a WND report revealing Obama's birth being reported at two different Hawaiian hospitals, both sites changed their information to suddenly fall in line with the president's claim that he was born at Kapi'olani.

Here is the screen shot from Snopes on July 7, before WND's report was posted:

Snopes is despicable.

I love how they change their “Facts” to whatever story Obama makes up on a particular day.

The truth will out eventually.. They're scared of the riots that will erupt when they remove the Kenyan Muslim from office..

Stay tuned and keep your powder dry.

Perhaps Kenya is the 58th state Obama was talking about here:

It sure is. They can’t get it together fast enough; so we know they are either lying or they don’t have the real information. Obama does; though; but he is to chicken to stand up and be a man.

I wonder what Rush might be up to. He has been out this week. He was up all night on a secret project the night of that weird eBay auction. Mark Levin also mentioned the BC and is buddies with Rush. Levin had not said a word about it.

They may be waiting for his poll numbers to drop lower. I wonder if some Dems are getting more worried about 2010 elections and may start doing what they did to President (gag) Jimmy Carter. The Dems in Congress undermined Carter.

I cannot find a BC that has the cross hatching we discussed. However, the BC, of another person, born in 1963, has the cross hatching.

See Here: http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=103465

Like I said before, I think it was a security feature designed to thwart fraud, using say white out, such as we see in McCains BS BC.

In McCains BC, we can clearly see that someone used whiteout and we see artifacts of handwritten notes as well as words and alphabet font, left over from previous typing.

I still believe McCain submitted a fraudulent document, just as Barry did, with his incomplete short form. The short form is missing vital information and would still be an unacceptable form of documentation for the State Department, as required for a passport. It also an unacceptable document for an I-9, required for employment.

In fact, the requirement for I-9 and passport are the same and both McCains and Barry's could not have been accepted for proof, verification and processing.

We need to find completed I-9’s for Barry and a copy of his SS card would be nice.

Most people when employed submit their BC and SS card for employment.

I guess he couldn't get "building 7" clearance on this one, so he switched it to something smaller.

since congress and the fedgov won’t even bother to provide this most basic request...

maybe we should withhold something they want from us.

Snopes. I love how Congressmen point to their site to "prove" that Obama was born in Hawaii and that it is just an "Internet" myth that he wasn't. Snopes is not a huge research organization with hundreds of employees checking facts and cross checking each others findings to come to a consenus as to whether something is an "internet rumor" or not. Snopes is a website run out of the home of 2 people. The husband does the web design. The wife is the "investigator". She alone decides what is rumor or not. This latest episode exposes them for what they truly are. Here is an article about Snopes:

That the Obama apologists cannot stick to a consistent story about something as simple as the Bamster’s birth hospital is suspicious.

What will Obama’s original birth certificate look like now? In the hospital born column, it will be whited out, covered up, erased, pasted over and basically rendering the document unreadable.

We should start demanding that Obama’s home where he lived as a child be a national monument, who knows maybe America will buy it.

I myself find the depth of this interesting, that microfiche records are being tampered with in Hawaii, its unreal, whats next, the utility and tax bills of 1961 get erased? How about the real family that lived there, lets suppose that suddenly a lot of memorabilia surfaces showing that Obama never actually lived there.

With the economy in shambles its logical to pass on the word that there is money to be made by selling facts, names and places about where the Most Omnipotent Leader was born.

Interesting thought but what kind of proof would suffice to prove where he was born? Word of mouth won’t do it and he is not releasing his birth certificate.

Thats just the crux of the problem, all he has is a document in Hawaii stating that he was a child born, in effect like a vehicle registration form, when I was younger I traveled all across the US living in one place for a year and then moving on, I constantly changed my trucks state registration but never the original pink slip.

Obamas “pink slip” is in Kenya.

Many many people need to physically go to Kenya, do a documentary, take photos of the hospital, pictures of Obamas relatives home. Invade Kenya and break through the wall of silence.

Let's see.

1.A few days after Michael Jackson's death, we see Jackson's children's birth certificates on the web, the ones with the names of the birth doctors and birth hospitals name on it.

2. On the other hand, we can't see President Obama's long form Hawaii birth certificate anywhere, the one that has the name of the birth hospital and birth doctor on it.

3. Again: When it comes to Michael Jackson, we see his children's long form birth certificates on the web just a few days after Jackson's death.

4. However when it comes to President Obama, the elected President of the United States of America, we cannot find a copy of his Hawaii long form birth certificate---the one with the doctor and hospital names on it---even though many, many months have passed since the Senator Obama announced his run for President back, I believe, in Feb. 2007, which, coincidentally, is the same year that is stamped on the back of the Hawaii short form birth certificate we see on the web.

5. I find the whole Obama birth issue bizarre, and it becomes even more bizarre when you realize that Michael Jackson's children's long form birth certificates are on the web and President Obama's is not.

I suspect almost every American born since the 1950’s has a picture of them with their mother in the hospital, a hospital taken photo, or a picture of them arriving home with the awaiting family.

Has anyone ever seen any such picture of Obama?

I never have. Might such a picture show him in a Kenyan village?

If it wasn’t for WND, this would have been totally hushed up.

Pray the judge will rule that the orginial birth certificate must become public.

Between now and the 2010 Senator and Representative elections, I say this:

1. We should demand that candidates for Senator and Representative in the upcoming 2010 elections publicly provide a long form birth certificate so that we, the voters, can be absolutely sure that they are who they say they are and that they are eligible to run for federal office.

2. If for some reason, candidates refuse to provide their long form birth certificate so that the public can examine it, then I say we tell them face-to-face that we simply won't vote for them, and we will look for and vote for someone who is not scared to show his long form birth certificate to the public.

3. And that includes the powerful House Speaker, Pelosi.

2. On the other hand, we can't see President Obama's long form Hawaii birth certificate anywhere, the one that has the name of the birth hospital and birth doctor on it.

That's because the State of Hawaii doesn't print long-form birth certificates any more. If you ask them for a birth certificate, you'll get a form that looks like Obama's. California, on the other hand, lists the hospital and birth doctor on their COLB.

BTW, why are you so concerned with the name of Obama's birth doctor or his hospital? What possible relevance does this have to his eligibility as president?

Of course, kneepads, everything is on the up and up. Snopes and Factcheck are apolitical websites, Obama never told people he was born at Queens Hospital, the Hawaiian authorities have verified Obama was born there and the hospital has confirmed it.

Can’t wait for his families birth house to become a National Monument, can you?

Sigh. The tendency for birthers to hurl sexually explict insults at anyone who refuses to believe their conspiracy theories is getting rather tiresome.

everything is on the up and up. Snopes and Factcheck are apolitical websites,

I fail to see how the nature of Snopes and Factcheck have any bearing of the birthplace of Obama.

Obama never told people he was born at Queens Hospital,

Do you have any evidence that he did?

the Hawaiian authorities have verified Obama was born there and the hospital has confirmed it.

Hawaii officials verified he was born in in Hawaii. The hospital won't confirm it because 1) they likely don't keep records that long and 2) even if they did, they can't release information about patients because of privacy laws.

Fukino said no such thing. She said "(I) have personally seen and verified that the Hawai'i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama's original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures".

Where does she say he was born in Hawaii?
