The RNC’s decision to meet in Honolulu for its conference struck me as pretty defensible, given the surprise special congressional election that will be taking place in the state when Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-Hawaii) retires next month. But Jonathan Martin found skeptics high up in the GOP firmament who view the location choice as an expensive waste.
Asked about the meeting location, one veteran party strategist expressed a mix of bemusement and annoyance by simply replying with a YouTube link to a Don Ho video.

Maybe they're smart enough to be nervous about the possibility of being ambushed by a delegation of tinfoil hat-wearing Birthers, demanding that the RNC take this unique opportunity to storm the State registrar's office in search of Obama's “real” birth certificate

Awesome. Come on Birthers. Make it happen.

This is too funny!
The hunt for “grays”/UFO's, Sasquatch/Bigfoot, monster squids, members of the Bilderberg group all rolled into one!
The Crash Test Dummies missed one with the Rush “Oh my God, I'm dying” moment, they just CAN'T miss this one!

How much you want to bet that there will be at least a dozen posts on the Freep and Town Hall.com claiming that they *actually* went to Honolulu to uncover the Evil Black Usurper's birth certificate showing that he entered this world in High Brazil and is actually a subject of Prester John?

A dozen? Well, I think you're right….Since they keep posting under myriad screen names, it may just be two. Or less (of course, schizophrenia has it's advantages….You never get lonely!).
It'll be interesting to see how things play out, since they'll be the “minority” there, too.
