Spokesman belittles WND reporter, asks 'what reporting' has been done
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs today refused to confirm that a letter posted by the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children in Honolulu purportedly from President Obama claiming the facility as his birthplace is, in fact, real.
The issue arose today when Les Kinsolving, WND's correspondent at the White House, asked Gibbs about the letter, which the hospital also used in a magazine fundraising article.
However, when WND reported on the posted images and questioned their authenticity, the hospital concealed the Internet image it had posted, and then refused to confirm that the letter even exists.

That’s what the White House letterhead looks like.
Mmmmmmm,,,
Now what year did this place open ?...;0)
Two choices. Yes or no.
Not the obfuscating, tortuous, and glib non-answers they give.
It's kinda like Juanita Broderick and Clintoon. Remember how we used to say, Bubba could've raped and murdered a woman on the Capitol steps, on camera, and he still wouldn't have been thrown out.
Multiple that by 100 and you have our situation with BamBam.
UNFREAKIN'BELIEVABLE GIBBS!!
Ridicule all the Americans that just want to see WHAT HOSPITAL your boss was born in!! A simple release of this birth document could answer the questions that have been pursued for over a year now!
All these so-called "journalists" in that room should be ashamed of themselves. They are a disgrace to their profession. Les Kinsolving, WND's correspondent at the White House, should ask the same question EVERY DAY until the secretive Barack Obama releases his birth document.
There is no “birther”.
There is only evidence, facts, truth. Some of it’s common sense, some murky, but getting clearer each day.
Picking up hip definitions based on snippets you read is easy, researching is a little harder isn’t it?
All education is self-education.
Inevitable — Zero will be shown to be a fraud (including regardless where he was born).
(Too bad Kinsolving didn't point out that a jpeg image on the internet is NOT one of the things the State Department will accept when one applies for a Passport.)

I've seen two versions: one where the emblem is blue and one where it is white and raised. For some strange reason, it's cut off in the internet image of the letter supposedly provided by Obama.
Their standard tactic is to answer unwanted questions with smug disdain instead of answering the question.
I agree!
You wrote- “This administration is in trouble. The facts are coming to light quickly each day, especially all the scrubbing done last week. The inevitable is coming, and its not going to take 4 years.”
so...Neil Abercrombie reads a letter from obama to the illustrious guests at a Kapi'olani dinner - the Kapio'lani website proudly displays the letter on its website and now it's gone...of course I believe it! Who wouldn't believe Neil Abercrombie? He's the same Neil Abercrombie who is the only one on Hawaii who ever saw Stanley Ann Dunham and Obama Snr together, remember? (sarc.)
Thanks, LucyT
Wake up America PING.

Neil Abercrombie reading the letter to the guests...
Why is Hawaii typed or spelled Hawai’i???? Twice??
Just curious..
“Lester, the next time you ask me a question I’m going to ask you what reporting you’ve done to demonstrate to your listeners the truth, the certificate, the state, so that they can look to you for that momentous search for the truth, and you can wipe away all the dark clouds and provide them with the knowing clarity that comes with that certainty,” Gibbs said.
That man isn’t capable of speaking like this. Is this a joke?
I may be mistaken, but I thought I saw where someone did a screen capture of where Kapolini Medical Center had posted that letter on their web site before they pulled it.
Does anyone else remember seeing that?
This whole situation makes me wonder if anyone in the Obama administration is beginning to wonder about Obama’s birthplace. Sure, they’re liberal Democrats but they probably care about the country and the Constitution (in different ways than I do, but still). So many lawyers in that administration, trained in logic and the psychology of defense mechanisms...what do they think when they see Gibbs’ hysterics and mockery? Even if I were an Obama loyalist, I would start to have doubts and a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach.
Thanks, Fred Nerks
