And I pray to God I am wrong, but from the beginning, this has felt like the Obama camp taking a page out of the Rovian rope-a-dope playbook.

There is something scary about all this; false documents, pictures of HNL airport that's really San Francisco, a hospital that wasn't in business in 1961, times and places that don't correlate to any time line. And all of it has been dished up to us by Obama's campaign website or his surrogates. Nothing has been definitively proved or disproved nor will it be. You can't prove a negative but you can look foolish trying.

If Obama wanted me to cash a large check and offered that Birth Certificate as proof of identity, I'd laugh and tell him to go away. (My son was born here, I know a real one when I see it.) But all it tells me is that he has a fake, it doesn't tell me he wasn't born here.

All the rest doesn't add up either but it gets us no closer to the truth about this candidate other than he's a slimy, conniving conman with beaucoup bucks financing him, all pro handlers promoting him and legions of mindless cheerleaders wanting a photo op with him. There's a sucker punch coming, I don't know what it is other than to brand us all racists or paranoids or nativists.....some catchy moniker that can be used to political advantage in Obama's campaign.

For me , one aspect of this exercise has been most troubling. The very clear Constitutional requirement should have prompted the candidate to quickly and forthrightly authorize the state of Hawaii to make his birth records open for inspection. The posting of images on his own or other websites is not a substitute for making the data available from primary sources.

I have no idea as to the authenticity of the document images provided thus far or to Obama's claim of natural born citizenship; but, IMHO, he has already failed in a duty associated with seeking our nation's highest office. Namely, to provide the electorate with the most accurate data possible with which to judge his suitability for the presidency.

Win or lose in the coming election, he has cast doubt on his integrity and shown a lack of respect for the office that he seeks.
