Eligibility story is dead? - Joseph Farah, July 27, 2009
Farah doesn't mention the possibility that the paper records being destroyed doesn't necessarily mean there still isn't an electronic copy.
There is simply no long-form birth certificates available for people born in Hawaii before 2001, electronic or otherwise? That would be very newsworthy, and I haven't seen any news stories to that effect. This wouldn't affect Obama, apparently, but the rest of us are required to come up with a copy of our long-form birth certificate occasionally. You must be right. They must still have the electronic copy of everyone's long-form birth certificate, including Obama's.
So what was the point of CNN's announcement that the story is dead because the records have been destroyed? (Other than deliberate deception?)
