For some reason, I can't get the article at the link. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.
Last night the article would come up for anyone. I guess now you have to register.
There is no new information from Mrs. Nordyke. There are quotes from her throughout the thread.
Here is some more of the article:
Nordyke, in a Friday telephone interview with The Daily Republic, said the birthers have consistently discounted her testimony. She is certain they are wrong.
A birther claim that Obama was born in Kenya, she said, is just a myth. Its not true at all.
Nordyke, a longtime friend and Stanford University classmate of Mitchell resident Kathryn Crockett, said the birther issue has been a broil in Hawaii for the past two years. Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle on Thursday signed legislation designed to limit requests for Obamas birth documents. That move has only outraged birthers.
Hawaii officials have repeatedly confirmed Obamas citizenship, saying they have seen his birth certificate.
Hawaii law prevents the release of full long form birth information to anyone but family members, Nordyke said, so for the birthers to keep clamoring for it is ridiculous. She said the leaders of the birther movement are using the false claims to reap financial gain.
Nordyke said Obamas birth notices appeared in the Aug. 13, 1961, Honolulu Advertiser and Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
She recalls that Obamas birth notice was published several days before her daughters notice, even though Obamas mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was admitted to Kapiolani Hospital after Nordyke entered the hospital. Obama was born on a Friday, and the Nordyke twins were born on a Saturday, she said.
Nordykes late husband, Dr. Robert Nordyke, was an internal medicine specialist at Honolulus Straub Clinic.
My daughters birth certificates were 10637 and 10638, and Obamas was 10641, so his mother must have come in after I did, Nordyke said, though she never met Obamas mother.
Nordkye said she doesnt know who Obamas mothers doctor was, but only five obstetricians were at the hospital at the time, she said. Birthers have complained that the name of the attending physician is being hidden.
For about six years, Nordykes daughters attended school with Obama at the Punahou School, a school of about 4,000 geared for the college-bound, which Nordyke called the best school in Hawaii.
It’s working for me.
