		<description>Hey vanfraudster:

If you and your birther/teabagger pals like D&#039;Onofrio and Taitz are such sticklers for the Constitution, how come we didn&#039;t hear from you when Bush and Cheney were shredding it with torture, detention without trial and other criminal activities?</description>

[ed. The OIP will get their chance first. They have the power to initiate disciplinary proceedings. I think Okubo got tripped up on her own Seussian hooplah by trying to parse the words &quot;hold&quot; and &quot;maintain&quot;. The records of divorce from 2002 onwards are aparrently &quot;held&quot; by the judiciary... but I believe the DoH still maintains them in that they control access to them in some manner. That&#039;s the law in Hawaii... you don&#039;t have to actually &quot;hold&quot; records to &quot;maintain&quot;. If you exercise any authority over them, then the law says you &quot;maintain&quot; them. She tried to parse her answer to KingsKid and she tripped over her own tongue. This is what happens when people lie to the giant...the giant just has too many eyes, ears and noses... Seriously, it&#039;s on now. We know for certain that there&#039;s a cover up at the DoH... It may just be that they don&#039;t want us to have closure on the place of birth... and it doesn&#039;t matter. One way or another we will have closure. They are starting to sweat over there. It&#039;s just a matter of which guppy comes forward first.]</description>

		<description>You are incorrect, Cody.  President Barack Obama will be re-elected in 2012, I predict, because the masses of the people are going to make sure of it.  The Obama-Biden Administration is actually in the process of bringing about relief to the many poor and middle-class people who were, during the eight years of the Bush-Cheney Administration, trampled upon.

Regarding the birth certificate slander, I do not even pay attention to it anymore; as, hopefully, you are not either.</description>

Whether he&#039;s born here or not, he&#039;s gonna be in office for awhile, whether we like it or not- the Establishment will make sure he&#039;ll stay in (and be successful at it), until we get a shot at the 2012 elections.</description>

		<description>more DOH/nbc related status update from natural born citizen  
Leo Donofrio
Â« DoH Reverses Course â€“ Releases Index Data For President Obama, Stanley Ann and Barack, Sr; No Records For Maya Exist.OKUBO CAUGHT AGAIN: Admits Providing False Information Regarding DoH Maintenance Of Divorce Records.


[UPDATE: 10:36 PM EST -  Okubo answers KingsKid today (Saturday) - &quot;No records exist&quot;  for Barry Soetoro. AND - Office of Health Status Monitoring under maintenance until 6:30 PM (Hawaii time) tonight Saturday 10.02.09 See my comment to this article for details. ]

In an amazing turn of events, the person in charge of communications at the Hawaii Department of Health â€“ Communications Director Janice Okubo â€“ has been forced to admit that part of her Oct 1, 2009 email to â€œKingsKidâ€ was false.

I reported yesterday that Okubo stated the DoH does not hold divorce records. But later, reader KDSB commented that the Department of Health web site contradicts Okuboâ€™s statement. They do maintain divorce records. From the DoH web site:

About Vital Records

Vital records (birth, death, marriage, and divorce certificates) for events that occurred in Hawaii are received and preserved by the Office of Health Status Monitoring, a unit of the Department of Health.


KingsKid had previously issued the following question to Okubo:

Is the â€œbride and groomâ€ index data that you provided part of the Presidentâ€™s index file, or is it from Stanley Ann Dunham and Barack H. Obama, Sr index files? Also, was the divorce of SAD and BOH, Sr. part of the 338-18(d) index data?

Okuboâ€™s response:

From: Okubo, Janice S. 
To: [KingsKid - real name redacted]
Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2009 8:29 PM Subject: RE: Clarificatio, Please

Aloha..,

I am sorry; I may have misunderstood your request. The â€œbrideâ€ and â€œgroomâ€ index data is from Stanley Ann Dunahm [sic] and Barack Hussein Obama index files.

The Department of Health does not hold divorce records, they are with the Department of Judiciary.


Janice Okubo
Communications Office
Hawaii State Department of Health

That was a blatant lie. They do â€“ in fact â€“ hold divorce records. They do â€“ in fact â€“ hold the divorce records for both Stanley Ann Dunham divorces. Itâ€™s absurd to even consider Okubo wasnâ€™t aware that the DoH held those infamous records.

When called to task by KingsKid, Okubo provided an answer which is not credible: 

From: Okubo, Janice S.
To: [KingsKid-real name redacted]
Sent: Friday, October 02, 2009 6:55PM
Subject: RE: Clarification, Please

Our Office does not maintain an index for divorce records. We only have divorce records from the courts between July 1951 to December 2002.  All other divorce records are kept in the court where the divorce took place. My apologies for the misinformation on the website, our staff will work on updating those pages.

Janice Okubo
Communications Office
Hawaii State Department of Health

This is insanity.

Okuboâ€™s original response to the divorce question didnâ€™t mention â€œan index for divorce recordsâ€. It simply stated, â€œThe Department of Health does not hold divorce records, they are with the Department of Judiciary.â€

How does the Communications Director overlook 51 years of divorce records on file with her office? 

This is more Seussian hooplah.  The DoH maintains records of divorce and all vital events.  Information from those records is maintained as index data per registrant.  Her Seussian hooplah response was that they do not maintain â€œan index for divorce recordsâ€œ.  Sheâ€™s essentially telling you her answer depends on what the meaning of index is.

She may call the directory of divorce records whatever she likes in her native tongue of Seussian hooplah, but divorce records maintained by the DoH must be listed in a file for each registrant. The only misinformation here are the words birthed from her bent keyboard.

And when exposed, Okubo inexplicably blamed the error on the DoH web site.  But itâ€™s Okubo who is directly responsible for the misinformation. The DoH web site accurately states that the DoH maintains divorce records. The web site makes clear that a divorce is a vital event.

Haw. Rev. Stat. 338-18(d) commands the DoH to make the following information available to the public:

(d) Index data consisting of name and sex of the registrant, type of vital event, and such other data as the director may authorize shall be made available to the public.

I have news for the people running this psyop: itâ€™s over. And things donâ€™t usually end well for the guppies. Your masters will feed you to the giant before they ever take the fall. This is not Tokyo Rose psychobabble. Giant is awake. Giant will prevail. Itâ€™s just a matter of time.

		<description>#8-There is no such thing as a long or short form birth certificate, just as there is no long or short form drivers licence or passport.  Why don&#039;t you try this experiment?  It&#039;s simple-anyone can do it at home. Write to the Health Department of the state you were born in and ask for a &quot;long form birth certificate&quot;.  When you get it, come back and tell me what&#039;s on it.  

I already know because I did that for my daughter.  What I got has the same info as Obama&#039;s.  Sorry to disappoint all the birthers who think there is some secret code or some such nonsense.</description>
