In the ongoing quest to determine the exact birthplace of Barack Obama, the president's alleged personal effort to put the matter to rest is raising some interesting new questions. The latest concerns focus on a letter purportedly sent by Obama to Honolulu's Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children in which the commander in chief outright declares his birth at the facility. (Within an hour of the posting of this story, Kapi'olani removed the image of the letter from its website.)

California attorney Orly Taitz, who has pursued multiple legal challenges to Barack Obama's eligibility to be the president, is attracting some high-level attention, with the Justice Department trying to add itself onto one of her cases and the legal counsel for the Joint Chiefs of Staff being assigned to review another issue. Taitz has filed multiple legal actions around the country alleging Obama does not meet the constitutional requirements to occupy the Oval Office. One of her cases, filed against Obama as an individual for actions before he took office, is scheduled for a hearing in a California court on...

Defendants, Obama, USA, Congress, Senate, House, Cheney, and Pelosi have filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs' complaint/petition. Their main argument is that the plaintiffs do not have standing and that all the defendants have immunity from all of plaintiffs' constitutional claims. The current defense motion to dismiss the complaint/petition was returnable Friday, July 20, 2009. Plaintiffs’ opposition was due by Monday, July 6, 2009. The defendants took over 4 months to file their motion. I was only given 2 weeks to respond. Given the critical importance of this case, the complexity and novelty of the constitutional issues, and the need...

Martin cites an article from the Internet ezine www.WorldNetDaily.com that collects conflicting claims about the actual hospital where Barack Obama was born. "Where's the truth?" asks Martin? "Does anyone in Hawai'i care about the truth? Or don’t they care that Hawai'i is increasingly looking like Obama's own 'gangster republic?'" WND.com has carried new concerns about media "swapping" of Obama's birth location, see: http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=103465 [Best document view is usually at www.ContrarianCommentary.com] ANDY MARTIN Petitioner Pro Se NATIONAL LITIGATION CENTER Post Office Box 1851 New York, NY 10150-1851 Toll-free tel.

If you happened to read online news sites such as United Press International or the popular hoax-busting Snopes.com anytime up until Tuesday night, you would have seen definitive statements that President Obama was born at the Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. But checking back now, both sites are suddenly providing an entirely different location, the Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children, also in the capital of the Aloha State. Within hours of a WND report revealing Obama's birth being reported at two different Hawaiian hospitals, both sites changed their information to suddenly fall in line with the president's...

Below is a letter Obama sent to Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children in Honolulu, Hawaii at a Centennial Dinner on 01/24/2009 which was read by Rep. Neil Abercrombie. Obama clearly references this hospital as his hospital of birth.

UPI Photo/Roger L. Wollenberg/File A judge in California has scheduled a July 13 hearing in a case challenging Barack Obama’s eligibility to be president in which the plaintiffs’ attorney, Orly Taitz, says the commander-in-chief is in default.Taitz told WND if her motion is granted she will immediately request access to Obama’s birth records and other documentation that could determine his eligibility to occupy the Oval Office. The announcement came from U.S. District Judge David O. Carter, who said: “Before the court is a motion by plaintiffs for reconsideration of order to show cause or in the alternative to certify...

Finally. we have some clarity on where Barack Obama Jr. was born. (This is not birth certificate related) It seems he was born in Honolulu! At two different hospitals. Divine? You be the judge. A United Press International report from Nov. 4 states: “Obama described his birth at Queen's Medical Center in Hawaii Aug. 4, 1961” But on 1/24/09, he wrote to Kap'olani Medical Center; “As a beneficiary of the excellence of Kapi'olani Medical Center -the place of my birth - I am pleased…” At least he is now on record saying he was born in America. I'm feeling better...

2009-07-08 02:28:05 - Martin says the Hawai'i courts are obstructing access to historical archives concerning President Barack Obama. In a sharply worded petition to the Hawai'i Supreme Court, to be docketed July 9th, Martin recites a history of abuse, harassment and procrastination by Hawai'i judges, clerks and the state's Attorney General. "There is no explanation for the behavior of Hawai'i officials," Martin says, "Unless someone has something to hide." ANDY MARTIN Post Office Box 1851 New York, NY 10150-1851 Toll-free tel.

St. Charles County Council chairman Joe Brazil says he may introduce a council resolution that asks for the county prosecutor or the state of Missouri to examine whether President Barack Obama is eligible to hold his office. Brazil said Wednesday that he found "absolutely credible'' the assertions of California dentist and lawyer Orly Taitz, who contends that Obama is not a U.S. citizen and therefore ineligible to be president. Brazil was among 40 people who showed up at the Vision Library in St. Charles to listen to Taitz, who spent almost two hours Wednesday outlining her allegations that Obama was...

Commentary: As many people probably know, the mainstream media is not what could be considered non-partisan. It often clearly leans to the left. Thus, most of the news is given in a way that promotes a liberal agenda, such as global warming being a major problem, homosexuality being genetic, and the perception that whatever Barack Obama does is amazing, simply because he is the one that did it. Shows like SNL spent a lot of time ridiculing both the Republican and Democratic candidates in the Presidential election last year. However, there were two very clear characteristics of it. The main...

For a fellow who claims to have invented the concept of transparency in American politics and government, Barack Obama's behavior is most peculiar, especially when it comes to his birth certificate. Obama claims that he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961, has released his birth certificate, and that the matter is closed. Furthermore, when asked about the controversy during a recent news briefing, White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs broke down into hysterical laughter and answered by saying, "We won!" Thanks for that professional insight, Mr. Gibbs. Campaigning to be Obama's Transparency Czar are you? Although Barack Obama's...

We, the collective citizens of the United States of America, as the employer of the president of the United States, demand that he produce his original passport application and appropriate documentation; his undergraduate college records including all the application, scholarship information and appropriate documentation for such; his Harvard Law School application, scholarship information and appropriate documentation for such; and his original long form certificate of live birth for our inspection and approval. The vetting process for Mr. Obama to run as a candidate for the office of president of the United States FAILED to obtain ALL of the required information...
