Independent Confirmation Of Obama's Birth
Edited on Fri Jan-23-09 03:28 PM by WeDidIt
Teacher from Kenmore recalls Obama was a focused student
By Paula Voell
NEWS STAFF REPORTER

When Barack Hussein Obama places his hand on the Bible today to take the oath of office as 44th president of the United States, Barbara Nelson of Kenmore will undoubtedly think back to the day he was born. It was Aug. 4, 1961, at Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu.

“I may be the only person left who specifically remembers his birth. His parents are gone, his grandmother is gone, the obstetrician who delivered him is gone,” said Nelson, referring to Dr. Rodney T. West, who died in February at the age of 98. Here’s the story: Nelson was having dinner at the Outrigger Canoe Club on Waikiki Beach with Dr. West, the father of her college friend, Jo-Anne. Making conversation, Nelson turned to Dr. West and said: “‘So, tell me something interesting that happened this week,’” she recalls.

His response: “Well, today, Stanley had a baby. Now that’s something to write home about.”

The new mother was Stanley (later referred to by her middle name of Ann) Dunham, and the baby was Barack Hussein Obama.

1. Why do this?
The more we focus on the Right's zany conspiracy theories, the more we give them credibility--we become counter-conspiracy nuts.

I'm ready to do what Prez. Obama said in his speech--to "put away childish things." This FreeRepublic "certifigate" nonsense definitely qualifies.

5. Just knowing that they remain in a state of denial
is enough.

6. I do wonder how long even they can keep this up. You would think
that at some point they'd all slink away from birther threads.

They'll be SCREAMING it at the top of their lungs dduring the 2012 campaign
which should be enough to swing another 3-5% of the vote to Obama and the Dems.

7. Clearly their Kool Aid poisoning has lasting effects!
What a bunch of morans, I'm series!

Schadenfreude is human nature. They have been so mean to us, not to mention so incredibly stupid, for the past 8 years. It's no surprise I'm getting a little charge out of their continued chasing of wild geese:)
