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

KAILUA, HAWAII – 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.”
