Obama's 'birth hospital' in astonishing cover-up

Once proudly celebrated president, now in active mode to hide 'proof' By Joe Kovacs Posted: July 10, 2009 11:49 pm Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily The Honolulu hospital which for nearly six months proudly declared President Obama was born at its facility and used that claim as a major fund-raising tool is now engaged in an active cover-up, hiding a White House letter announcing his alleged birth there and refusing to confirm such a letter even exists. The Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women and Children is electronically cloaking what it had touted as a Jan. 24 letter from the president, in which the commander in chief, just four days after his inauguration, supposedly wrote, "As a beneficiary of the excellence of Kapi'olani Medical Center – the place of my birth – I am pleased to add my voice to your chorus of supporters." WND was first to question the authenticity of the letter by revealing the image displayed on the hospital's website was not the image of an actual paper letter, but merely a computer-created likeness of a letter using HTML code, the building blocks of websites. Within an hour of WND's report, the image, which also featured no presidential or White House seal, vanished from view on the hospital's page celebrating its 100th anniversary. WND can now reveal the hospital did not completely remove the image of the letter. It actually covered it up electronically using a special hiding code called "commenting out" that prevents readers from seeing it when anything is put between "." WND took a screen shot of the source code, which is now showing up in green as it's being hidden from viewing on the regular, visible page. This source code screen shot (above) taken July 10, 2009, demonstrates that a "comment out" has been inserted in the HTML code to prevent the display of what Kapi'olani Medical Center in Honolulu had been proudly proclaiming to be a White House letter from President Obama announcing he was born at the facility. The cloaking change took place approximately an hour after WND revealed the alleged White House letter was merely a computer-generated likeness of a letter. "That was purposeful coding in of well-known HTML code that basically removes code from showing up in the display of a Web page, but maintains it in the actual source code of the page," an Internet consultant told WND. "It's just a quick way to stop things from showing up in the browser. It's typically done so that coders can hide or bring something back quickly." [CONTINUE READING]
