Weird Stuff/Unexplained Title: Ariz. Sec'y of State Accepts Hawaii’s Statement, Keeps Obama on Ballot Ariz. Sec'y of State Accepts Hawaiis Statement, Keeps Obama on Ballot Written by Bob Adelmann Upon receipt of verification from Hawaii that President Obama was born there, Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett said that it satisfies his states requirement for placing the Presidents name on the ballot for the November election. After a delay of eight weeks, Bennett finally received verification that allowed him to get out from under national attention he received when he first made the request to Hawaiis Department of Health. Bennett had responded to a constituents request that he verify Obamas place of birth before allowing his name to be placed on the ballot. When the pressure from an ongoing investigation into Obamas origins continued to build and Hawaii delayed in responding, Bennett was apparently looking for a way out. Bennett agreed to see Mike Zullo, Maricopa County (Arizona) Sheriff Joe Arpaios lead investigator in the matter, to review the evidence already uncovered that appeared to question the Presidents place of birth. Following that interview, Zullo said that Bennett was clearly uncomfortable, remained unconvinced, but was troubled by Hawaiis delay in responding to his request. Said Zullo: I knew when I met with Mr. Bennett last week in Phoenix, before we left for Hawaii, that he was desperately trying to get out of the political corner he had painted himself into. Bennett obviously believed Obama was telling the truth. He was shocked when Hawaii didnt immediately issue the verification. As it dragged on into weeks, Bennett became desperate to do whatever Hawaii asked to get what amounts to even this meaningless letter. Zullo had a chance to examine the letter Bennett received from Hawaiis Department of Health Registrar Alvin Onaka, and noted at least two deficiencies that, in his opinion, rendered it meaningless. The letter didnt include Obamas date of birth, and the Registrars stamp on the letter was initialed gk, which indicated that someone other than Onaka had applied the stamp. Said Zullo: I suspect these defects are not accidental. My suspicion is that top officials in the Hawaii DOH [Department of Health] and the Hawaii Attorney Generals office created a defective document that could be disclaimed [later] rather than take the time to produce a thoroughly proofread and officially certified legally binding state document. Zullo added: Either Onaka refused to initial his registrars stamp or the Hawaii DOH is not sufficiently competent to produce a legally valid document. But either way, the cover-up appears alive and well in Hawaii
The Hawaii DOH letter is nothing more than a highly-lawyered, cleverly crafted document that we can now prove does not verify what it appears to verify. Zullo also pointed out that the letter was released only after members of the Maricopa County Sheriffs Office investigation team tried unsuccessfully to meet with Onaka during their trip to Honolulu last week. Bennett, a Mormon and co-chairman of Arizonas presidential campaign supporting Mitt Romney, also a Mormon, has just launched his own committee to explore a run for Arizona Governor in 2014. And so his commitment to prove Obamas eligibility became an embarrassment, according to Zullo: My impression was that Bennett wanted to appear sympathetic to the tea party group to win their political favor, but that he guessed wrong, calculating that Hawaii was telling the truth about Obamas birth and had nothing to hide. Bennett was dumbfounded when Hawaii hesitated. Bennett denied any such effort to pander to members of the tea party, saying that it was his duty to request verification from Hawaii. Said Bennett: I was just trying to put this thing to bed and agreed to a constituents request, which Im allowed to do. This is a constituent from Arizona, whom I work for. I am the chief elections official, and I am responsible for elections, and I make the list that these people qualify for the ballot. Zullo said the investigation into Obamas origins is continuing, including efforts to show that his Selective Service registration forms are also forgeries. Sheriff Arpaio is expected to hold a press conference on the matter in early June.

If Orly isn't enough to discredit you Berfer morons, Trump should be. Every state in which some sort of challenge moved forward semi-successfully has ended up declaring him *natural born*. You aren't going to rest until ALL 50 states declare him natural born, are you?' (snicker)
Personally i could care less if the self appointed asshole is natural born or not, he's crashing and burning all on his own.... The point was some politicians are such pussies for caving in to a "little" political pressure and the Leftards love it when that happens.... I think it's because it reminds them of themselves!!!

Excuse me if I discount the analysis of the President by those who voted for Bush even once... You have no leg to stand on whatsoever when it comes to determining the success or failure of this President. But Berferism is just insane...it's fake moon landing and Clinton Death List moronics all rolled into one...
