Records #2 and 3 are based on Record #1. Fukino had no problem citing record #1 in a singular reference in October 2008, just not in July 2009. There would be no reason to look at Records #2 or #3 to confirm Record #1, so this is another stupid and lame excuse that doesn’t hold water.

Look, people generally don't use technical language in press releases. She was using an every day, generic word for data related to his birth.

You're reading into the word meaning that isn't there. If you can't see that, then there's not point discussing this further with you.

I quote from Dr. Fukino’s October 31, 2008 statement, second paragraph: “Therefore I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai’i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statuatory authority to oversee and maintain THESE TYPES OF VITAL RECORDS, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai’i State Department of Health has Sen. Barack Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”

It should be obvious to anyone with a middle school ability to read for comprehension that in the October, 2008 statement, Dr. Fukino was attesting to whether the original, vault copy, long form birth record [singular] was on file. She was only addressing that one original document.

One more time: An original long form plus an original short form plus more than 90 pages of Index Data equals [plural] record(S). The long form and the short form are not the same document. They are plural, then add the Index data to the mix. A Court or a Grand Jury might very well subpoena BOTH the long form and the short form from the state of Hawaii to compare the information on both RECORDS.

edge 919 is trying to parse one letter in a generic term. There is not an Office of Vital Statistic, there is an office of Vital Statistics.

Any reporter interviewing Dr. Fukino or any deposition taken by an attorney would be able to clarify the difference between a record and records in about two minutes.
