Birthers Challenge Hawaii to Produce Statehood Certificate
President’s Birthplace Not Really American, Leaders Claim

KAILUA, HAWAII (The Borowitz Report) – Leaders of the so-called Birther movement followed President Obama on his Hawaiian vacation today to demand that Hawaii prove it is actually a U.S. state.

Mr. Obama’s claim to American citizenship has rested on his birthplace being Hawaii, but the Birthers argued today that Hawaii’s claim to being part of America is far from a foregone conclusion.

Speaking to reporters in Kailua, Birther leader Orly Taitz said that Hawaii cannot be considered part of the United States “unless it can produce an authentic statehood certificate.”

Ms. Taitz said that she did a thorough title search on the islands and has concluded that rather than being a U.S. state, “the islands of Hawaii appear to be colonies of Kenya.”

“That means that everyone born in Hawaii is legally not an American but a Kenyan,” she said, "which I find ironic."

The Birthers’ contention that Hawaii is not a state promptly drew support from one leading Republican politician, former Governor Sarah Palin.

“To be honest, it’s something I’ve always kind of wondered about,” Gov. Palin said. “Hawaii just isn’t an American-sounding name, like Alaska.”

^^ Thats exactly what I was thinking. Although Alaska does sound rather "Americanish"

I mean really,who names a US state Hawaii anyway right?

Any talk of Hawaii being removed as a state gives rick chills as this just puts him one step farther from his dream of making his homeland of Uumpa Lumpa island the 58th state.

I didn't think it was true. So, I didn't bother to research and authenticate it. That is why I used the conditional text: "If this is legitimate and true". Too bad you got yourself riled up to flame me over my having chucled at something. But, then again, I am not surprised either. You need to lighten up.

Just so we're clear here, you're telling me to "lighten up" in retort to a post where I joke about "gullible" being absent from the dictionary?
Really?


Further, I offered the indentical conditional text prior to casting the humorous insult that got you riled up.

And lastly, an intelligent person would not have to "research and authenticate" the original post to know it's a joke.

I bet you have a great sense of humor in real life, but you stiffen up whenever the subject matter aims at Palin or yourself (albeit for opposite concern)

But I'm the one who needs to lighten up.

(note: that last sentence is sarcasm)

Have a happy and safe New Years Eve.
