Please link to the actual quote by the State of Hawaii official.

The last statement I read basically indicated that she (Ms. Mikobu) stated that she could not comment “either way” as to the authenticity of the COLB posted on the Obama campaign site.

Here you are:

Health officials contacted the Obama campaign a few months ago in response to the persistent inquiries "to see if they could try and resolve the issue with the people who were asking questions," she said.

"They responded and apparently it isn't good enough that he posted his birth certificate," [Health Department spokewoman Janice] Okubo said. "They say they want it because they claim he is not a citizen of the United States. It's pretty ridiculous."
[Source]

That's less than a formal, positive affirmation that Obama's COLB is true. But if it's fraudulent, don't you think Ms Okubo would keep her pie hole shut instead of labeling the controversy ridiculous?

Not if she plans to vote for Obama.

Additionally, she was not indirectly defending any BC on file with the state of Hawaii. She conspicuously left that point of debate centered on what Obama, himself, posted on his own campaign website. What she called ridiculous was the challenge to the alleged fake document, not what is on file.

She cleverly maintained a neutral position, for the safety of her own job. And I would too, if I cared about my job.
