4. Yep. The newest meme justifying the McCain 'US

birth' story is that, no, he wasn't born at the Coco Cay Air Base hospital (which wasn't even built until 1941) but now it's that he was born at the Coco Cay Submarine base (which supposedly had a hospital at the time). My money is still on McCain being born in a Panamanian hospital in Colon, the only near place large enough to have a hospital at the time.
