Is there really some controversy over Obama's birth certificate? Can't they simply call up the hospital where he was born and get an "offical copy" like anybody else? Isn't that a matter of public record? I know I did that for my kids, and for myself, when we got passports. Is the passport application public record, too? What's the big mystery?
