Here's something new for the birthers to chew over: President Barack Obama's passport. Says he was born in Hawaii! But the White House has strategically fuzzed out certain data, so the mystery continues.
Now, it's his official passport, which means it's new, so the true believers will not be persuaded. Not that they ever would.

Moreover, during that same time period (mid-1981), New York Times assistant news editor Barbara Crossette visited Pakistan and wrote a column about her experiences, a piece in which she offered tips to other Americans who might wish to visit that country. Additionally, her column prompted a(emphasis added)follow-up letter fromJohn S. Brims, then the U.S. Consul General in Lahore, Pakistan, in which he "welcome[d] an influx of Americans" who might have been inspired to come to Pakistan by her article and also offered helpful tips for tourists traveling to that country by rail from India....Many other news articles from 1981 reference either Americans' traveling to Pakistan or the Pakistan government's making efforts to encourage visits from U.S. tourists.
You have done some incredible work on this issue.
Just wanted to take a moment and say thanks!
I personally don’t give a sh&t about that stupid recent passport they posted online. It means nothing. You have no clue what other evidence has been gathered or how it will be used. Just sit back, wait until closer to 2010. Your boy is going down. Deal with it.
The more accurately the facts are ascertained, the more ridiculous the Birthers end up looking.
It certainly is "incredible", in the literal meaning of the word.
New hire?
n00b troll I see. Touchy subject isn’t it? Must me or you all wouldn’t spend so much time all over the internet, defending it.
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its hard to say what date is printed under the blurred out area. Not sure why they blurred it out. Its just an issue/expiration date. Kind of strange.
This is a valid passport, and that is why the admin is so willing to show it. But was it based on accurate information? Such as... was it based on his Certificate of Live Birth instead of his long form Birth Certificate which we are yet to see. That is the question and that is where the real debate still stands.
Do you need to know an attending physician’s name, a birth weight, the parent’s occupations?
Any Court of Law will accept a certified copy of the birth record from the state of Hawaii along with a notarized letter of authentification from the Director of the Hawaii Department of Health and the Registrar of Vital Statistics.
At the bottom of every Hawaii Certificate of Live Birth (short form) it says the following: “This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.”
The Director of Health, the Governor of Hawaii, and the state Attorney General have all confirmed that Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.
And you are a what, a troll, new hire, both?
A passport is only good for 10 years so he has had at least 3, 4 or 5 since his first one.
It could have beenb changed at any time
Trnscripts and actual birf cert is what I want to see
Indeed! and a big thank you from me too, butter.
Trust me. If the passport image is edited, it is impossible to tell whether it is genuine.
Wha???
Is Sinclair back in town??
I give you a week, tops before you’re out of here.
This passport image has obviously been modified, as was the original presentation of the image of the "certification of live birth."
This isn't even an image of a derivative document since the profferred image is apparently of an official passport; if so, then it didn't even require any supporting documentation on the Kenyan Clown's part. At least the "certification of live birth" was supposedly an abstract of a primary document.
This repetition of another very weak presentation makes the failure to produce any primary documents look worse.
He’s got Reggie on standby 24/7 and he went to see Michael on his birthday. Larry is out of the picture now, just like Kal Penn.
This is supposed to support his birth in this country?!
It's brand new. He's the president of the United States and controls the executive branch.
What a pathetic try!
ROTFLMAO!
It seems to have been quite successful at tweaking the Birthers, which IMO is the real purpose behind this image.
I don't think this proves anything about his birthplace, but I agree with you that who the father is, is just as important.
In fact, if Barry Obama Sr. is Barack Obama's father, then he is ineligible to be president.
It illustrates that this country is afflicted with racial stockholm syndrome.
