Joe Arpaio Sets Judgment Day For President Obama And His Birth Certificate

Bigfoot's next.
The results of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's "investigation" into whether President Barack Obama is eligible for office are set to be announced.

MCSO spokesman Jeff Sprong tells New Times the findings are set to be released on March 1.

Arpaio's been mostly hush-hush about the probe, but has promised his "birther" posse will deliver a "shock" with its findings on the conspiracy theory that's been continuously debunked for several years now.

Arpaio told New Times in November that the key to investigating whether Obama's eligible for the office of the president deals with twins born at the same Hawaii hospital as the president (allegedly), just one day earlier.

The sheriff said the twins' files could be found on microfiche -- meaning Obama's records should be there too.

If not, that could mean the president was born in Kenya, Indonesia, Burkina Faso, Narnia, the North Pole, Iceland, or some other foreign land.

Arpaio still claimed that if the twin theory didn't add up, there was "other information" that could solve the case.

The sheriff's "birther" posse has received significant media coverage since the start of the investigation, including his front-page appearance on a supermarket tabloid and in the articles of conspiracy theorist extraordinaire Jerome Corsi.

Corsi had previously claimed Arpaio's new investigation into the president's origins was likely getting support from a Florida sheriff (he wouldn't tell us who) but when we phoned up the likely sheriff's in the Sunshine State, they all denied they were meeting with Corsi and -- surprise -- we never heard from him again.

Still, brace yourselves -- the "shock" is just weeks away.
