and then lies (see below) …….. (MSNBC) By Michael Isikoff:   The Hawaiian state health official who personally reviewed Barack Obama’s original birth certificate has affirmed again that the document is “real” and denounced “conspiracy theorists” in the so-called “birther” movement for continuing to spread bogus claims about the issue.   “It’s kind of ludicrous at this point,” Dr. Chiyome Fukino, the former director of Hawaii’s Department of Health, said in a rare telephone interview with NBC.
Fukino, sounding both exasperated and amused, spoke to a reporter in the aftermath of Donald Trump’s statements on the NBC Today show last week questioning whether Obama has a legitimate birth certificate.  Trump, who says he is considering a run for president, repeated his claims on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday, saying that “nobody has any information” about the president’s birth and that “if he wasn’t born in this country, he shouldn’t be president of the United States.”
No matter what state officials release on the issue, the “birthers” are going to question it, said Fukino. “They’re going to question the ink on which it was written or say it was fabricated,” said Fukino. “The whole thing is silly.”
As the top Hawaiian official in charge of state health records in 2008, when the issue of Obama’s birth first arose, Fukino said she thought she had put the matter to rest. Contacted by NBC, Fukino expanded on previous public statements and made two key points when asked about Trump’s recent comments.
The first is that the original so-called “long form” birth certificate — described by Hawaiian officials as a “record of live birth” — absolutely exists, located in a bound volume in a file cabinet on the first floor of the state Department of Health. Fukimo said she has personally inspected it — twice. The first time was in late October 2008, during the closing days of the presidential campaign, when the communications director for the state’s then Republican governor, Linda Lingle (who appointed Fukino) asked if she could make a public statement in response to claims then circulating on the Internet that Obama was actually born in Kenya.
Before she would do so, Fukino said, she wanted to inspect the files — and did so, taking with her the state official in charge of vital records. She found the original birth record, properly numbered, half typed and half handwritten, and signed by the doctor who delivered Obama, located in the files. She then put out a public statement asserting to the document’s validity. She later put out another public statement in July 2009 — after reviewing the original birth record a second time.
“It is real, and no amount of saying it is not, is going to change that,” Fukino said. Moreover, she added, her boss at the time, Lingle — who was backing John McCain for president — would presumably have to be in on any cover up since Fukino made her public comment at the governor’s office’s request. “Why would a Republican governor — who was stumping for the other guy — hold out on a big secret?” she asked.
Her second point — one she made repeatedly in the interview — is that the shorter, computer generated “certification of live birth” that was obtained by the Obama campaign in 2007 and has since been publicly released is the standard document that anybody requesting their birth certificate from the state of Hawaii would receive from the health department.
The document was distributed to the Obama campaign in 2007 after Obama, at the request of a campaign official, personally signed a Hawaii birth certificate request form downloaded on the Internet, according to a former campaign official who asked for anonymity. (Obama was “testy” when asked to sign the form but did so anyway to put the issue to rest, the former campaign official said. The White House has dismissed all questions about the president’s birth as “fictional nonsense.”)
The certification that the campaign received back —which shows that Obama was born in Honolulu at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1961 — was based on the content of the original document in state files, Fukino said.    “What he got, everybody got,” said Fukino. “He put out exactly what everybody gets when they ask for a birth certificate.”
Hawaiian officials say that the certification is, in fact, only one piece of abundant evidence of Obama’s birth in Hawaii. Joshua Wisch, a spokesman for the Hawaii attorney general’s office, noted that a public index of vital records, available for inspection in a bound volume at the Health Department’s Office of Health Status Monitoring, lists a male child named “Obama II, Barack Hussein” as having been born in the state.
In addition, as Factcheck.org and other media organizations have repeatedly pointed out, both of Honolulu’s newspapers, the Honolulu Advertiser on Aug. 13, 1961, and the Honolulu Star Bulletin, on Aug. 14, 1961, both ran birth announcements listing Obama’s birth on Aug. 4 of that year.   Even Fukino accepts that her comments are not likely to end the matter for the die-hard birthers. Trump and other skeptics have questioned why the original birth certificate has not been released.
But Wisch, the spokesman for the attorney general’s office, said state law does not in fact permit the release of “vital records,” including an original “record of live birth” — even to the individual whose birth it records.
“It’s a Department of Health record and it can’t be released to anybody,” he said. Nor do state laws have any provision that authorizes such records to be photocopied, Wisch said. If Obama wanted to personally visit the state health department, he would be permitted to inspect his birth record, Wisch said.
But if he or anybody else wanted a copy of their birth records, they would be told to fill out the appropriate state form and receive back the same computer generated “certification of live birth” form that everybody else gets — which is exactly what Obama did four years ago.  (full article)
Michael Isikoff the author of this article is also the moron who falsely reported that a koran was flushed down a toilet in Gitmo that caused rioting that cost many lives. Isikoff is also the same guy who lied about the Lewinsky scandal to protect his Democrat president, the man’s a liar. He cannot be trusted.
These last three paragraphs are a complete “legalese” falsehood, carefully scripted and very “carefully worded” distractions to prop up President Obama.   Here is a recently requested copy of a long form “birth certificate” from a Hawaiian resident.  Miki Booth just posted a long form Birth Certificate issued from the State of  Hawaii Department of Health issued on Mar 15th, 2011. Proof that you still can request a long form Birth Certificate from the State of Hawaii.  (This is what Obama could produce at any time)

This is what Obama “HAS” Produced “Note the word “certification” as opposed to “certificate” on the others.

Here is another example of a long form birth certificate for someone born almost the same time as Obama in Hawaii

See the difference?
Also note the exact phrasing used in the article and contrast with this consideration.  (We previously outlined it here)
Also, an excellent rebuttal from “Miri” copied here:

First, Fukino is no longer an official, so anything she says carries no weight whatsoever.
How is it that upon request of the former governor, a Republican, Fukino could take another person (who was that? Onaka?) to look at the original document, twice, and yet Neil Abercrombie claims he’s not able to find it or look at it himself? He can’t look at it when he himself is currently the DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR of Hawaii and a friend, supposedly, of Obama’s family? Why won’t Barry give his dear friend permission to view it?
Why would the FORMER campaign official, who got Barry to sign that request for the COLB, wish to remain ANONYMOUS? This is certainly most fishy. Although it does ring true that Barry would be testy about being questioned.
So this anonymous person claims that they received the COLB, but the person doesn’t say WHAT IT SAID!
Why’s this person “former”, btw? Didn’t perhaps want to be involved in any shenanigans with regard to that COLB?
What happened to that COLB subsequent to receipt? Why was Barry testy? Did he know what it would and would not say? Did he KNOW that it wouldn’t match his fictional bogus autobiography that Bill Ayers wrote for him back in 1995, when he was a callow, inexperienced, unaccomplished community organizer who WANTED to get street cred with the black community in IL, especially Chicago, in order to USE THEM to promote his budding political career, which he started at Billy Ayers’s house?
He was stuck with that bogus biography. He owns it. But guess what? That COLB that arrived from Hawaii did not say what it says on the online version. I’d be willing to bet anything on that FACT. For starters, there’s NO FATHER’S NAME on the photograph taken by FactCheck. Not on the one that shows the “embossed seal”. It’s OBVIOUSLY MISSING. It’s NOT THERE.
Did Isikoff tape this conversation with Fukino, so that people can hear her actual words instead of his interpretation and/or edited portions of a conversation? We need exact quotes because they PARSE everything they say. It all depends upon what the meaning of real is.
Why would Isikoff interview a FORMER official instead of the CURRENT administration? Is this normal journalistic procedure? Afraid to endanger someone’s job? Is it a crime to lie to a reporter when acting in official capacity, versus a FORMER employee simply conversing over the phone with a reporter?
When has it EVER been stated before that these original “records of live birth” (why not “birth certificates”?) are stored in a bound book on the first floor of the Health Department? Does that sound likely? Are these, perhaps, those filed but NEVER ACCEPTED registrations? Those that NEVER were authenticated and accepted as truthful by the “State Registrar”? What are they?
Surely they don’t have bound books with every birth certificate ever created in Hawaii, stored right there at the HDOH. No, those would have been microfilmed, with originals placed in a secure, probably fire-proof place at the Hawaiian Archives. Someone probably knows the answer to this and will weigh in. Surely they’re in a VAULT somewhere. Filed, not bound, so they can be easily accessed and copied as needed.
Hmmmmm. Barry made his sudden trip to Hawaii to visit Granny in August, 2008, right? Fukino finds his original “record of live birth” in a bound book in October 2008. What was the DATE on that original record? When was it created, half typed and half handwritten? NOTE: This isn’t “written down in the archives.” The archives aren’t the same as the Dept. of Health. So this can’t be what Abercrombie was talking about.
They totally lie when they say that a person can’t get a copy of his own original record. Miki Booth and ladysforest’s brave undercover “agent” both proved that it IS possible to get a photocopy of the ORIGINAL long-form birth certificate.
HOWEVER, there must be something special about Barry’s? What could that be? ADOPTED, SO SEALED? This is the only situation that I can think of where the person in question may not be able to get a copy of his original records. But it still makes no sense. If the law restricts copying of an original bc for an adopted person, the person would likely not even be able to peruse it. This is what they’re saying to cover for Barry, to explain WHY, IF THE RECORD EXISTS, INSTEAD OF SHOWING IT HE SENT LTC LAKIN TO PRISON!
Fukino did NOT SAY where that birth took place. Did she? Only that there’s a record of his birth there, signed by a doctor. So when did the doctor sign this record? Who is the doctor? What hospital did he work for? Is there a medical record to back this up? Is it just an affidavit from a doctor who, in 2008, claimed that he delivered Barry at home? Or in a field on a plantation somewhere?
Here’s a question for you: Exactly WHEN in time did that BC# suddenly be revealed? That sounds like a “tell” to me. She mentions that it’s properly numbered. Uh, huh. And the passport files at the Dept. of State are proper, too. After being cauterized.
She did not state that the Dept. of Health sent that COLB to Obama’s campaign, did she? This came from the anonymous former campaign employee of Barry’s. Fukino said, again, only that that’s what somebody would get if they requested their bc. She didn’t state that the information on the online COLB MATCHES EXACTLY what she saw on that “original record of live birth”! Since Fukino is no longer with the Dept. of Health, does anything she says to a reporter carry any weight? Is she willing, like Tim Adams, to sign an affidavit?
It’s not worth responding to her non sequitur about RINO Lingle. It’s been said that any Republican in Hawaii still ends up to the left of many a mainland Democrat. Hawaii receives, and still wants, the many benefits that depend upon federal largesse. There’s a lot they expect from Barry in return for services rendered.
Yes, do read all the words carefully. I’m sure that I missed something here. The law doesn’t provide for photocopying THOSE types of records. What does that mean, when obviously Miki Booth got a copy of hers? My guess is that Barry’s “vital records”, plural, are not the ordinary, run-of-the-mill records. How could Mrs. Nordyke have PHOTOCOPIES of her daugthers’ birth certificates? We’ve all seen them. The HDOH created them. They photocopied them and mailed them to her. How do they explain this?
ANY Hawaiian record WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE PRODUCED TO ANY COURT OF LAW, IF SUBPOENAED. This is the TRUTH. IF Barry wanted to, he could have had the records sent to any of the courts, ending these lawsuits. INSTEAD, he spent millions of dollars, and worse, sent a brave patriot to PRISON BECAUSE HE WILL NOT RELEASE THE RECORDS. IF he cared, IF he’s truly eligible, then he would have BEGGED the COURTS to force the HDOH to release the records IN ORDER TO SAVE LTC LAKIN’S CAREER AND FAMILY. HE DID NOT.
OBAMA: PROVE YOUR ELIGIBILITY. NOW.
