"It's a valid Hawaii state birth certificate," spokesman Janice Okubo said June 13, 2008, after we e-mailed her our copy.
And on the 28 or 29th of June Okubo realized that she could be wrong admitted to the St. Petersburg (Florida) Times in an article:
"I don't know that it's possible for us to even say beyond a doubt what the image on the site represents."

And you pull out this nonsense:
Does this mean Obama was born in Hawaii?
"Yes," said Hawaii Health Department spokeswoman Janice Okubo, in both email and telephone interviews with the Tribune. "That's what Dr. Fukino is saying."
I remember debunking this back in November. "Yes" to what?
Two quotes that are separated.
"That's what Dr. Fukino is saying."
"Saying" about what? That the sky is green and the grass is blue?
If the Chicago Times had anything worth saying about Obama's origin, they would not have put it in their blog section - "The Swamp"
If you disagree with an idea or statement, argue the statement. Don't attack the poster.
I didn't "pull" anything. I properly quoted what was written.
It is quite clear what they "yes" is to.
It is also clear that confirming they have the original record, after having seen the internet copy, and saying "yes" to was he born in Hawaii, is pretty solid confirmation. Had that internet copy contained false information they could have said so. Hawaii does not have just anyone's birth information on file. They have it on file because he was born there.
Assertions that he could have a birth certificate there without being born there are false.
