I've been saying as much for the past couple years - the whole deal about WHERE Barack Hussein Obama was born is NOT THE POINT.
In other words - Obama could have been born in Hawaii, he MAY have been born in Kenya, he might be a British subject and the argument could be made that he's a citizen of Indonesia.
But ultimately it doesn't matter ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. He was sworn in by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, in front of God, Congress and everyone, and that makes him President of the United States, whether or not he was born in Kenya, Hawaii, or on the Moon.
Today I heard Rush pick up the ball on this subject*
Quoting from the UK Daily Mail: "Hawaii Governor Claims Record of Obama's Birth 'Exists in Archives' but Can't Produce the Vital Document."
Rush's take is that Team Obama is playing this thing, hoping to whip the Tea Partiers up into a Birther frenzy over the whole birth certificate issue. Then, at the appropriate moment - sometime prior to the 2012 election - the Democrats produce the necessary paperwork and we're all made to look like a bunch of John Birchers; Moonbats, right up there with the 9-11 denial crowd and the rest of the Tinfoil Hat Brigade.
Timing is critical on this thing, of course. Rush reminds us that on October 31st, 2008, Chiyome Fukino - Director of the Hawaii Department of Health - released a statement on this issue:
"There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate. State law prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record.
"Therefore, I, as Director of Health for the State of Hawaii, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama's original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures."
That tells us one thing: THE PAPERWORK EXISTS.
Think about it - for years before Obama even entered politics, he traveled overseas ON A U.S. PASSPORT. Somebody tell me how you can acquire one of those things WITHOUT a valid birth certificate showing you were born in the United States or its overseas possessions and territories?
Well, OK, there are a couple of options, neither of which would apply to BHO: a Certificate of U.S. Citizenship - such as required of children born overseas of U.S. parentage (such as children of U.S. military families) - or a Naturalization Certificate (such as I have) that documents U.S. citizenship acquired via legal immigration and satisfying the requirements of the naturalization process.
Back when I ran the S-2 shop for 1st Bn / 3d SFG(A), one of my duties was to manage official passports and visas for overseas travel. Except for contingency operations, U.S. military personnel travel on official passports. Well, we had one guy - a young NCO in the headquarters & support company - he'd been adopted at birth and raised on an Indian reservation - Lakota Sioux. He didn't have a birth certificate - don't ask me how the recruiters got him in the U.S. Army - he could simply could NOT get a U.S. passport, and as such he could NOT deploy overseas with us.
When I left that position we still hadn't figured how this guy could deploy with the battalion. I went back down to an Operational Detachment "Alpha" (ODA) and to this day I don't know if it was ever sorted out.
Bottom Line: no proof of citizenship, no passport - point, blank and simple. No matter who you are. Obama's been traveling the world - as an American - since before he was in politics. This guy's got a passport - ergo: the paperwork exists.
* As a member of the working class, it is not possible for me to tune into Rush during the show's regular hours. For the years I was overseas this was a struggle; the best I could do was look at the website and read the shows transcripts. Now - thanks to iPod technology - I can download the show and listen to it on my time; in this case, as I drove about on my Sunday errands.

He is a total political animal.
He got himself elected President of the United States
- without doing a damn thing -
and then won the Nobel Peace Prize
- without doing a DAMN thing -
pulling off a flim-flam like this is child's play to the Bamster.

No reason to get excited,
the thief he kindly spoke.
There are many here among us
who feel that Life is but a joke.
But you and I we've been through that
and this is not our Fate.
So let us not talk falsely now
the Hour is getting Late.
