birthers

Donald Trump:

"It took me one hour to get my birth certificate. It's inconceivable that after four years of questioning, the president still hasn't produced his birth certificate."

Please. These "birthers" are beyond ridiculous. This is no conspiracy conceived years ago by Mr. Obama's parents, hoping for the kid to become president someday. And Mr. Trump needs to get his facts straight.

Seriously, in Hawaii, birth certificates are not public record, and only family members can get copies of them. But Obama put his out there a few years ago in response to all this nonsense. Check out the following web pages:

Happy now, birthers? I thought not.

We all know what this is really about.
