Okay, so you think if you connect enough dots, then you can take credit for a statement that was never actually made. Also, Fukino wasn’t completely honest in her statement about vital records not being subject to disclosure under public records requests. The UIPA says that public interest OUTWEIGHS privacy. Since she doesn’t acknowledge this, her credibility is a suspect. Same goes with Gov. Lingle who claims a non-existent statement was released by Fukino that says Obama was born at Kapiolana Hospital. Why do you carry water for liars??

Any member of the Hawai’i state legislature could convene a legislative hearing on the UIPA privacy versus HRS. 338-18 disclosure of records issue. No such legislative hearing has been held and the Attorney General of Hawai’i has not issued a clarifying ruling on the law.
I quote directly from Section 92F-2 of the Uniform Information Practices Act, point 5: “Balance the individual privacy interest and the public access interest, allowing access UNLESS (emphasis, mine) it would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.”
Officials of the state of Hawai’i have obviously determined that release would indeed constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy and it is the responsibility of those who feel differently to file suit to have that decision on the part of Hawai’i officials overturned.
