Segment with State Senator Sam Slom | April 26, 2011
Rick Hamada: Glad we are back chatting about news and information and you my friend are right in the center of all of this, with conversation with John Temple and previously with Civil Beat but also I mentioned and talked about a full page on WND.com and Drudge, and all of this we’d would love for you to go and just cut to the chase.
Sam Slom: Well, I will cut to the chase. And I did hear Mr. Temple this morning. You and I have known each other for 17 years.
Rick Hamada: Yes
Sam Slom: I don’t go out after publicity, I don’t seek it, but I do have a policy if someone asks me a question, I answer it and answer it honestly. I don’t dodge anything.
Rick Hamada: Right.
Sam Slom: I was very disappointed to hear Mr. Temple who was waxing poetic about ethics, say three times in his segment this morning that, “Sam Slom jumped into this issue,” and all that. I never “jumped” into anything. I was called and I was asked and as you know I was asked primarily because I did live for 17 years in the Punahou Circle apartment building, seven of which Mr. Obama lived there. I did work with his grandmother at Bank of Hawaii. I did have a son, one of my four sons, who was born in Kapiolani Medical Center so I know a little about what I’m talking about when people ask me things. And I got all over the country I mean it’s amazing people asked various questions and they made statements and I had to correct them and say “that’s not true, that didn’t happen.”
But Mr. Temple and his outfit never called me and asked me what I said or what I believed. In fact one reporter called me yesterday from the Civil Beat and all he asked me was have I talked to Donald Trump and did I give Donald Trump information. And of course the answer was “no” I haven’t talked to Donald Trump or anyone else.
But what I said clearly on every one of these broadcasts, and by the way, I turned a number of them down because if it had any interference with my Senate duties or legislative responsibilities, I never did it. I was giving interviews at 12 and 1 o’clock in the morning our time here from home because of the 6 hour time difference on the east coast. But here is what I said to every one of them without exception:
I am not a birther I believe that Barack Obama was born in Honolulu at Kapiolani Hopital as he says. I have no reason to dispute that. But I said, as you mentioned earlier today, the thing that is troubling is, it’s not just his birth records but also his school records and his employment records that he has paid millions of dollars to attorneys to keep from the public eye. Now you would think that a dedicated news source and mainstream media would have been interested in that. They’re not.
As a matter of fact they write off people who even question that, or ask for it, as being racist. What I said very clearly is I don’t know what’s behind this or why he doesn’t do it, and maybe there is information on the birth certificate itself that’s has to do with his father. I never said we don’t know who his father is or its somebody else, but that’s what really irks me about somebody like Mr. Temple who doesn’t ask me doesn’t go directly to the source and purports to be a news source. I always said that maybe, but I don’t know, there is information that the President is trying to hide and it could be dealing with his father’s background or race or citizenship because in the old days, the birth certificate that I have for my son had a great deal of detailed information about race, ethnicity, employment …. all of that. So I don’t know but I have never made any of those outrageous statements and I tried to correct them where they appeared...[excerpt]
At last! Someone who can tell Obama & fam where the young prince was born.
I think the guy is lying.
Blood in the water...
Back peddle! He obviously got some heat.

The other thing was last week allegedly one of the deputy attorney generals made a statement that not even the President could get a copy of his birth certificate. So I called and checked on that. There is no written opinion no advisory opinion about that, but that’s what I do as you know Rick if somebody asks me a question if I know the information I’ll answer it, If I don’t I’ll research it and get it for that perspective but that’s all.

How about visiting FR? Someone posted a BC (long form) they had received about 3 weeks ago. Someone posted a video here of a person requesting and being told they could receive the long form BC.
Hawaii changes the rules to make it impossible for ANYONE to receive a BC just because Obama didn’t request his.
??!!
Nothing suspicious there.
Who's there?
Kenya
Kenya Who?
Kenya show me a birth certificate?
