President Obama, speaking at a fundraising event Tuesday in Boston, made light of the "birther" conspiracy debate about whether he was really born in Hawaii.
I think there's nothing -- there's no weakness in us trying to reach out and seeing if we can find common ground. Now, there are going to be times where we can't. I was born in Hawaii, what can I say? I mean, I just... I can't change those facts.

Exactly. I suspect that he was born in Hawaii; it’s what else his BC says that he doesn’t want to be known. Could be several things, but the most likely is that he was adopted by Lolo Sotero, his BC was changed to reflect that, and....he isn’t who he says he is.
“born in Hawaii” is a clintonism here. Here the problem is the definition of “born in”. If you are a resident of Hawaii, but born somewhere else, one can make a silly semantic argument that so long as Hawaii recognizes you as of “Hawaiian birth” you are somehow born “in” Hawaii. Cute, real cute.
Releasing it might change the argument more in the direction of in what fashion did Barry S0etor0 become an American again. It may not be so much what it says but what doors it opens.
“...what doors it opens.”
“Doors”...spelled: P-a-n-d-o-r-a-’s B-o-x
Barack, "Who's there?"
Kenya
Soetoro, "Kenya Who?"
Kenya find the Birth Certificate, Yet?
angery, Obama, "Knock it off Rahm!"
Agreed. And, it gives him the opportunity to make fun of those who question WHERE he was born - because that’s not the issue.
Someone pointed out on an earlier thread that it is like he wants to tell the truth, but he is caught and trapped in the lie.
It’s a distraction to his failed foreign policy in Libya.
I was born in Hawaii, what can I say? I mean, I just... I can’t change those facts.
So prove it.
Exactly...if you can’t (or refuse to) prove it (”those facts”) then it’s just a theory until proven factual or false...my gut tells me your hiding something that’s going to show your riding on a fat lie...time will tell...time will tell...
Hillary would cackle nervously when she told a joke that was too close to the truth.
He’s mocking the truth.
Remember: “God will not be mocked forever”

Do not be deceived. God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sews. Galatians 6:7
” Anyone else think its interesting that hes referred to this several times recently (with the requisite Alinsky ridicule, of course), after being silent on the issue for so long? “
I do.
This may also be the first time that Barry himself has actually
spoken the words “ I was born in Hawaii.”
Interesting that he stopped there and didn’t go further and name the hospital.....
Will any in the media ask the obvious follow up question about the specific hospital
since he brought up the subject ?
Some might, but, they won’t get an answer.
His statement was bizarrely blurted out during a discussion of ways that Republicans and Democrats can find common ground.
Most elected Republicans actually give Barry the benefit of the doubt or say they believe him or believe
the state of Hawaii ( actually it was just Chiyome Fukino who said this in one statement and naturally she didn’t provide
any supporting documentation )
so I don’t know why he brought this up in discussing partisan politics.
Must be on his mind a lot.
I would imagine it is. Also, I remember, as his first act, after becoming president, he wrote a letter to one of the hospitals in Hawaii proclaiming it to be his birthplace. So written, but perhaps not spoken before.
Barry Dunham was born in CANADA, registered in HI, spent his first year in Seattle.
The location is not the issue. The real problem is that
he wasn’t born. He was hatched.
