To verify we did indeed have the correct document, we contacted the Hawaii Department of Health, which maintains such records.
Its a valid Hawaii state birth certificate, spokesman Janice Okubo said June 13, 2008, after we e-mailed her our copy.
The Hawaii Department of Health receives about a dozen e-mail inquiries a day about Obamas birth certificate, spokesman Okubo said.
I guess the big issue thats being raised is the lack of an embossed seal and a signature, Okubo said, pointing out that in Hawaii, both those things are on the back of the document. Because they scanned the front you wouldnt see those things.
Okubo says she got a copy of her own birth certificate last year and it is identical to the Obama one we received.

If you're going to go through the trouble of publishing a forged document, why would you redact the cert number so it could be verified.....oh wait
What she said is double speak...lots a words but really didn't say a thing, classic diversion
A Certificate of Live Birth is not the same as a Birth Certificate during the time when Obama hatched. You know that and I know it.
Nice try however.
And Okubo, the dingbat, finally admitted about 2 weeks later to the St. Petersburg Times...
Janice Okubo: "I don't know that it's possible for us to even say beyond a doubt what the image on the site represents."
