Before proceeding, I'll note here that you seem to accept that the State Department's response to Strunk is exactly as I described it. It is an authoritative statement offered under penalty of perjury in a Court of Law that declares that Obama's COLB absolutely constitutes proof of his Hawaiian birth and his natural born American citizenship.
So far, so good.
"And with EQUAL determination The Hawaii Attorney Generals office REFUSES to corroborate Obamas Hawaii Birth and MORE importantly will NOT defend Fukinos statement that obama IS a NATURAL-BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN.
What the heck does "with EQUAL determination" mean? Is that like saying they both yelled at the same decibel level? Or they clenched their fists the same way? Or their faces achieved the same particular shade of scarlet?
The Hawaii Attorney General's office has no obligation to corroborate or defend anything Okubo said. But you appear (like MissTickly and butterdezillion) to have entered that Twighlight Zone of Birther "reasoning" in which an official's refusal to tell you what you want to hear is magically transmogrified into some super-secret way of actually telling you what they did not tell you after all.
I am comfortable that the State Department's declaration in court that the COLB is valid, that it is proof of Obama's citizenship, and that Obama is a natural born American citizen is significantly stronger testimony than the Hawaii State Attorney General's complete silence on the issue.
"Heres another special bonus link just for you:
Sun Yat Sen - Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. Although he was born in China."
Too bad it's not a COLB, that it was not issued by the State of Hawaii, and that it doesn't fulfill the State Department's regulations for proof of American citizenship at birth. If it were not so completely irrelevant to the discussion as that, it might at least serve to make you feel better.
