Donald Trump has been telling anyone who will listen about how he's investigating Barack Obama's birth certificate. He says he has "people" in Hawaii who "can't believe" what they're discovering. Sarah Palin and birthers around the country are praising him for his efforts.
I don't believe him.
For one, Trump has been talking about this issue for weeks (months?) now and has provided absolutely zero new information or evidence to help his case. Two, several media organizations have investigated the matter, confirmed the president was born in Hawaii and did so in less time. Finally, today, Trump's campaign strategist, Michael Cohen, refused to provide any details about this so-called investigation, saying it would be "completely counterproductive" to tip Trump's hand.
I'm calling hogwash.

That's the same as saying Obama's campaign investigated the matter... It means nothing.
Bwaaahaaahaaa!
It’s from the Baltimore Sun don’t believe it.
Ok to the author of this article, thanks for your unsubstantiated opinion.
I'm calling the author hog excrement.
“Pull my finger...”

I actually don’t think Trump said he had people there, in so many words, as someone suggested to him that he might, and he did not deny it. IIRC.
Supposed fact in title
I'm calling hogwash.
Bait and switch opinion in body of article.
But, in the case I'm wrong -- and Trump does actually have investigators in Hawaii
More bait and switch to watch a comedy show.
“several media organizations have investigated the matter, confirmed the president was born in Hawaii and did so in less time.”
Oh! Well then, I guess the matter is settled.
(newspaper idiots!)
“I don’t believe him. “
Well, gosh! That’s just all the proof we need!
Is this what passes for journalism nowadays?.............
Even a elementary school kid wouldn’t turn this in as a report........
You think he’d drop his Ace of Spades now.....he’ll wait for that trump card.....
“several media organizations”? Can he name one?
Interesting that the media has stated that they have “investigated the matter” but never said they saw the BC. If they did see it, why can’t the American people see it? For now, I prefer to take Trumps word for it. He has nothing to lose.
I just can’t see how Donald can back out of this one since he has stated they are finding things. I suppose he could just say I looked but can’t confirm anything until Odumass releases his record.
Bait and Switch - Exactly.
Like this....
Obama was born in Hawaii. Here’s proof....
Well, that may not be proof, but he was born there....
Well, maybe he wans’t born there, but so what?
Trump probably has investigators in Kenya, where the real BC is. Then again, he could be a spoiler for Barry, or maybe his favorite candidate, Hillary. He might have seen the birthers as an easy target to pull away from the Republicans that treat them with disdain.
