Via The Hill:

A Republican lawmaker made a subtle “birther” jab at President Obama during a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).

Rep. Raúl Labrador (R-Idaho), a freshman member of Congress who was born in Puerto Rico, joked that he had a birth certificate to prove his American heritage.

“I am fortunate to be born American, and I have the birth certificate to prove it,” Labrador said at a speech at the opening session of this weekend’s conservative gathering in Washington.
