Hey...DO NOT LOSE SIGHT OF THIS:
REGARDLESS of who the father is, which I agree is very murky-—WHY is there no record in any Hawaiian hospital of Stanley Ann Dunham ever being admitted?
It is that glaring hole that makes one go...hmmm, where WAS Obama/Dunham/Soetoro born...if not in a Hawaiian hospital?
I think this has been gone through numerous times. The HIPAA law forbids the release of any such information, on pain of large fine and/or prison time. I've linked to the HIPAA law numerous times - here it is again. Note the penalties:
Criminal Penalties. A person who knowingly obtains or discloses individually identifiable health information in violation of the Privacy Rule may face a criminal penalty of up to $50,000 and up to one-year imprisonment. The criminal penalties increase to $100,000 and up to five years imprisonment if the wrongful conduct involves false pretenses, and to $250,000 and up to 10 years imprisonment if the wrongful conduct involves the intent to sell, transfer, or use identifiable health information for commercial advantage, personal gain or malicious harm.
And no, however often someone says it, directory data does not apply to someone discharged over 40 years ago.
Has anybody checked how many 50 year old admission records are still extant for anybody else from that time period and those hospitals?
I'm just a little older than Obama, and it wouldn't surprise me if the hospital records from my birth aren't around anymore. Organizations do discard records if there is no reason to keep them.
How did you come by the information that there is no record that Stanley Ann was admitted to the hospital? You could do everyone a big favor if you would provide the evidence of this.
