Whether they are or aren't, Obama was evidently fine with the story

How do you know he even read it, let alone was "fine" with it? The UPI isn't exactly the most widely-read wire out there.

Just like other stories that have been printed over the years were never corrected until it turned out these were incosistent with the current Obama myth.

All the stories birthers cite were printed in obscure outlets, like UPI, that few people read or take seriously.

Sorry captain oblivious, but the factcheckers probably found it was consistent with what they were told was true.

Told by whom?

Obama has changed his story

No he did not. I defy you to find a single instance in which he or any member of his family ever claimed birth at Queens hospital.

As far as I can tell, there are only three outlets that made that error: Wikipedia, a high school student newsletter, and UPI. In none of these cases is Obama quoted, nor is he listed as the source of the information behind the error.

Here you go:

A United Press International report from Nov. 4, 2008 states:

“Obama described his birth at Queen’s Medical Center in Hawaii Aug. 4, 1961...”

A screen shot (necessary as things like this tend to go missing from news archives) can be viewed here:

Scan down the page a bit till you see Barry’s photo.

Hopefully, you won’t let your lack of curiosity hold you back again from finding the truth.
