Hawaii Responds to AZ Sec. of State’s Obama Birth Certificate Threat

Last edited Mon May 21, 2012, 10:16 PM - Edit history (1)

If I was the one who received the request, I would have emailed back that first Arizona must prove that the state wasn't sunk by the Japanese during Pearl Harbor. Play fire with fire. Crazy for crazy. When state bureaucrats tussle!!! Hehehe.

OK, so maybe not the right response, but just as logical as the request by the SOS of Arizona.

Unlike the way i would have handled things, in fact Hawaii responded reasonably by telling the SOS of Arizona to fill out the proper paperwork:

"The Hawaii attorney general’s office has reportedly told Bennett that there are steps he needs to take in order to confirm President Obama’s birth records.

Those steps include Bennett proving that he legitimately needs confirmation in order to update the records at his office."

i am continually surprised at just how dumb folks in arizona are.
even though 2 of my siblings live there i don't see myself traveling to that state or supporting it in any way.
it's becoming as notorious as florida.

Isn't there somewhere else to get this story from than Glenn Beck? I know TPM is covering this. They even have all the released emails and letters between the parties.

Actually, I had no idea the blaze meant in the pits of hell with Glenn Beck. But that makes it even funnier to me.
