Nick R. Martin May 21, 2012, 5:16 PM One of the more amusing things revealed last week when Arizona’s secretary of state came out as birther curious was that Hawaii officials just simply don’t believe he’s qualified to investigate Barack Obama’s birth certificate.

Of course, SNL has skewered television since its inception. As "Baba Wawa," Gilda Radner gleefully lampooned the popular broadcast journalist's speech impediment; Dana Carvey's Church Lady hosted a Tonight Show for the devout; Wayne's World poked fun at amateurish ...

John Temple/Civil Beat Editor's Note: This is the second in a three-part series on Japanese real estate investor Genshiro Kawamoto and the controversy he's generating along Kahala Avenue.
