**Obama Bombshell** Blue Hawaii: Health Department falsified Obama's birth records!

Did you forget this video of Michelle Obama saying that Brack is a Kenyan?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xx3-MGHFXkc

Rule number 1 - Birthers lie. Constantly.

Rule number 2 - See rule number 1.

Rule number 3 - Seee rules number 1 and 2.

Becuse my post was so long, I hunted the shortest video I could find.
I hadn't seen that video before, so thank you for the link.
Now I have two links.

You may also want to add this from an interview in the Chicago Sun Times back in 2006 he made while returning from his trip to Africa:

He reflected on his trip at the back of a plane on Saturday, talking above the roar of the engines to the three print reporters who have been covering his trip.

Obama's next big international journey will be in 2007--he's looking at China, India and Indonesia, ``where ironically I actually have more of a childhood than I do in Kenya.''

... More of a childhood ? That implies he had some form of a childhood in Kenya. To have a childhood there, he had to have lived there. If he didn't have one, he would have said ( when referring to Indonesia ) something like :"Where I actually had a childhood as compared to Kenya ".

"Have you had even a single credentialed forensic scientist review your work or your findings? Just one? Or are they all part of the grand conspiracy like Krawetz?"

I realized I was slightly less than specific with this question, so let me clarify:

Has even a single credentialed forensic scientist reviewed your work and agreed with your findings and conclusions that the COLB is forged?

So before you say 'Sandra Lines,' remember that she 1) said she only reviewed your affidavit, 2) only specified agreement with you on one issue that's hardly controversial (i.e., Photoshop can alter images), and 3) did not agree with you that there is any actual evidence of forgery on the COLB.

You said, “More of a childhood ? That implies he had some form of a childhood in Kenya.”

So true. Good catch! Remember, too, that his stepgranny, upon recently receiving an honorary doctorate for her work with children, particularly ORPHANS, in Kenya, told reporters that even the President of the US “passed through” her hands. This implies that he was in Kenya as a child, since the context of the conversation was her work with children. She wouldn’t logically say he passed through her hands if he were an adult at the time, which is the timeframe when he supposedly first visited Kenya.

You know, James, your “evidence” would be more convincing if it weren’t in the form of an htm document from yet another supposed Obama Conspiracy debunking site. How about a link to the actual webpage from which they supposedly downloaded this West bio? Couldn’t somebody in the meantime have modified the text?

btw, why does the label say, “Rodney Thomas Weste” instead of “West”?

How about dueling biographies? Here’s one from the Pearl Harbor Survivors, presumably people who knew him well:
http://www.pearlharborstories.org/survivor.php5?name=Rodney+West%2C+M.D.&id=767&search=

“In December of l956, after delivering at least 5,000 babies - and other things, he retired from the practice of medicine.”

There CAN be a difference between retiring from the PRACTICE of medicine and retiring from being an administrator in a hospital or clinic. Or sitting on medical boards.

About “Catherine Dale West”, I notice that you don’t link to your source. How about an unbiased, authenticated source for that testimony, James?

Anybody want to guess where that information came from? The selfsame ObamaConspiracy (so-called birther debunking) BLOG. Catherine was a commenter there. You know, like the rest of us are commenters here.

So, James, I could log on to Free Republic under the pseudonym “Mrs. Rodney T. West” and SAY,

“My husband was retired from obstetrics in 1961. He didn’t deliver Barack H. Obama because he didn’t deliver any babies after 1956. He never had that conversation with Barbara Nelson because he was too ethical to gossip about any of his patients. His colleagues and family are offended and personally insulted that anyone would accuse him of such a breach of ethics for partisan political reasons, especially when he’s no longer alive to defend his reputation.”

Would you “believe” that testimony?

I do notice that there’s no authentication of the true identity of this Catherine OR any posting of HER so-called birth certificate to back up that claim. So it’s simply another comment on a blog by somebody who gives no evidence of being Dr. West’s grandniece.

But even if this is his grandniece, would it be surprising if his niece asked him to deliver her children, as a personal favor, even though he no longer ordinarily delivered babies, especially since he was at the time an ADMINISTRATOR at the STRAUB CLINIC, not at Kapiolani?

About the “former teacher”, she must be like Zelig. She shows up at two points in time in the messiah’s lifetime. First when she has a conversation with someone who’s allegedly gossiping (against medical ethics, I must add)about the birth of a child to a 18-year-old “patient” (who she doesn’t know at all) and somehow she remembers the names of the mother, father, and child, years later (but only after the other conversant is conveniently dead). Coincidentally, she also later becomes a teacher of that same miraculous child.

Another coincidence: Dr. West died in Feb. 2008, right around the same time that somebody who worked for someone, who himself worked for Obama and had also once worked for the CIA, was sanitizing BHO’s passport files, according to a person with knowledge of the State Dept. investigation into the breach, who spoke to a reporter.

So, was someone creating a “plausible” backstory, along with a COLB? You be the judge, REASONABLE, LOGICAL people.

When some court, any court rules that Obama is ineligible, get back to me. Thus far 69 state and federal courts including 7 attempts at the US Supreme Court have looked at the issue and none has ruled that Obama is ineligible.

You asked what I believed, I told you what I believe. If you have different beliefs, that’s fine.

STATEMENT BY DR. CHIYOME FUKINO
“There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate. State law (Hawai‘i Revised Statutes §338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record.
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.
“No state official, including Governor Linda Lingle, has ever instructed that this vital record be handled in a manner different from any other vital record in the possession of the State of Hawai‘i.”

“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawaii State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago.”—July 27, 2009

Birth announcements for Barack Obama

Another example of using the word, forensic scientist, without understanding its meaning.

Your question is oh-so typical of the liberal duplicity and hypocricy. When I posted my first report, “Was Obama’s birth certificate manufactured?” on June 13, the libs then were also clamoring for my research to be peer-reviewed. Was Factcheck peer-reviewed? Was Politifact peer-reviewed? Was Hawaii peer-reviewed? Was Krawetz peer-reviewed (besides by me)?

No, of course not. Whatever they said, it was golden.

It’s funny how many libs tout Krawetz as an expert but have no idea as to what are his actual credentials and what he can and cannot do. They never bothered to read his website.

If they had, then they would have known that Krawetz has made some very good points that are applicable to using image analysis software:

Krawetz said that the software he uses can easily be fooled by sharp contrast areas, like black and white text, image artifacts, and heavily reduced and compressed JPG’s (which perfectly describes the Fight The Smears image).

In other words, the software is easily fooled by intentional artifacts, which is what is on the COLB scam image.

His buddy, Chris Hansen, also took a software approach to analyzing the FTS image using Principle Components Analysis (PCA, a statistical methodology) and failed to find anything. No surprise here given that the whole idea of making the FTS small and highly compressed was to confound image analysis.

Relying on software is also the reason they missed the most obvious sign of Photoshopping (besides the text) on both the “high-res” Kos and the “crap-res”: FTS, namely the “bleeding date stamp” on the front.

Getting back to your revised question, back in October 2008, I did an extensive search for anyone having done forgery analyses on images and photos who could peer-review my research.

But, wouldn’t you know it, some Einstein on one of the lib blogs attacking me, took my question, totally out of context, that I had asked the website owner who seemed to have done some image forgery analyses. The lib poster mocked me by saying, “Look, here’s Polarik asking for help on image analysis; and this is at the height of his research!”

My search was in vain, however, because, according to Krawetz, “digital forgery forensics” is a new field with very few people who are expert it. There is no accreditation for this field.

None of the people in that category I contacted had any experience in spotting document image forgeries without having the original with which to compare.

I also contacted the guy who basically invented the entire field of ditigal forgery forensics, Professor Hany Farid, and asked him if there were any programs that could identify a JPG image made from Photoshop layers, and he said there were none.

Now, in my post, “What do these things have in common?” I listed twenty image anomalies identified by a dozen members of the Hot Air blog on June 12, 2008, that were in reaction to seeing the Kos image. All of these anomalies are covered in my research.

John C. Sweeney, a professional photographer, of the Post & Email did a peer-review of my research and said it was right on target.

Both the scam image and the object in Factcheck’s photos are Photoshop composites and the only way to validate that theory is by recreating the images from scratch.

In the past two years, nobody else has done the level of research that I have and nobody else has even attempted to replicate the border, let alone the forged scam image and the forged document object.

Watch an example of what you called my “amateur-hour” analyses:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbpjYeZXaVs

That is a very interesting statement.

Libtards live in an alternate reality where they are totally incapable of independent, rational thinking. They are zombies, walking about in a trance-like state, endlessly repeating, verbatim, whatever Factcheck and Fukino have told them about Obama’s birth certificate.

More importantly, they voted for Chairman Obama and the vilest bunch of Congressional criminals in US history.

Oh, God bless you for permanently effing up America.

REALLY SCARY!

ROTFL!

Donnie! Uh...Donnie! Uh...Donnie! Uh...

Another example of using the word, forensic scientist, without understanding its meaning.

Uh-huh. Maybe I just need to see it used in a sentence. Let's see...how 'bout this:

I should get in touch with that guy. I assume, of course, that that must be a different Polarik who did 'research' on Obama's COLB and had a go-in with Neal Krawetz, because that Polarik says he's a "forensics expert" whereas you've clearly stated "I never said I was a “forensics” anything."

Maybe that other Polarik is the one Berg repeatedly called a "forensic expert" in his case, too.

It’s funny how many libs tout Krawetz as an expert but have no idea as to what are his actual credentials and what he can and cannot do. They never bothered to read his website.

Like this page on presentations Krawetz makes at technical conferences? The first section being "Image Analysis" with a talk entitled "A Picture's Worth: Digital Image Analysis and Photo Forensics."

None of the people in that category I contacted had any experience in spotting document image forgeries without having the original with which to compare.

I also contacted the guy who basically invented the entire field of ditigal forgery forensics, Professor Hany Farid, and asked him if there were any programs that could identify a JPG image made from Photoshop layers, and he said there were none.

Maybe what you need is someone who has the power to spot forgeries with their naked eyes. I mean, someone else, since you've already claimed to possess that power. So either you're overestimating your own abilities, or you have a rare and valuable ability that exceeds scientific scrutiny.

Now, in my post, “What do these things have in common?” I listed twenty image anomalies identified by a dozen members of the Hot Air blog on June 12, 2008, that were in reaction to seeing the Kos image. All of these anomalies are covered in my research.

"Pseudoscientists – those pretending to do science (maybe even sincerely believing they are doing science) but who get the process profoundly wrong, use anomalies in a different way. They often engage it what we call anomaly hunting – looking for apparent anomalies. They are not, however, looking for clues to a deeper understanding of reality. They are often hunting for anomalies in service to the overarching pseudoscientific process of reverse engineering scientific conclusions."
- Dr. Steven Novella, host of the excellent "The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe"

John C. Sweeney, a professional photographer, of the Post & Email did a peer-review of my research and said it was right on target.

So another avid (and possibly pseudonymous) Birther, writing for a website created to promote Birtherism, endorses your pro-Birther opinions. Impartiality in peer review was always overrated, anyway.

It's interesting that you describe Sweeney as a "professional photographer," since I don't see where he ever identifies himself as a professional photographer. Rondeau calls him the P&E "photography expert," but then again, WND called you an expert too. So are you inventing credentials for Sweeney too? Maybe you can give him the ones you keep trying to take away from Krawetz.

Watch an example of what you called my “amateur-hour” analyses: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbpjYeZXaVs

Look, even the pseudoscience community has quality standards. Get a good video camera, a cameraman, some editing equipment, and then you can put together a video as professional and persuasive as this expose of how the moon landing photos were faked. The video is ten minutes long, but it details all kinds of little supposed anomalies in the Apollo photos, just like the anomalies you claim to have found.

Of course, it's all pseudoscientific nonsense. But it's good-looking pseudoscientific nonsense, with at least a false veneer of real science. So with a little time and effort, you might be able to pull your research up to the level of moon hoaxers.

And you would accept a document released by Obama to be authentic?

Two years ago, yes. Not now.

The state of Hawaii only produces the computerized version Certification of Live Birth since 2001, so if a long form were to be released, it would be a copy of Obama’s original that the Obama administration would produce.

This isn't completely true. Law requires them to keep original docs on file. They could produce a photocopy.

On top of that, there is no additional information on a Hawaii Certificate of Live Birth that is relevant to eligibility to be president.

You don't know that. The additional info would prove Obama committed fraud and/or had amendments made that further invalidate his alleged COLB.

STATEMENT BY DR. CHIYOME FUKINO
For Immediate Release: October 31, 2008
“There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate. State law (Hawai‘i Revised Statutes §338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record.

I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago.”—July 27, 2009

You know, during the campaign of 2008, I was actually in the mainland campaigning for Sen. McCain. This issue kept coming up so much in the campaign, and again I think it’s one of those issues that is simply a distraction from the more critical issues that are facing the country. And so I had my health director, who is a physician by background, go personally view the birth certificate in the birth records of the Department of Health, and we issued a news release at that time saying that the president was, in fact, born at Kapi’olani Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. And that’s just a fact. And yet people continue to call up and e-mail and want to make it an issue. And I think it’s, again, a horrible distraction for the country by those people who continue this. ... It’s been established. He was born here.—Governor of Hawaii Linda Lingle (R)

“Janice Okubo of the Hawaii Department of Health quoted by the Washington Independent on July 17, 2009: “Ironically, the ‘birther’ movement began in response to Obama’s own efforts to debunk rumors. One year ago this week, the presidential campaign of then-Sen. Barack Obama launched FightTheSmears.com, a web site designed to push back against false rumors about the first African-American presidential nominee. To push back against rumors that he was not born in Hawaii, the campaign reproduced a Certificate of Live Birth from the state’s Health Department. Instead of terminating the conspiracy theories, that inspired new theories — that the certificate had been forged or that even if it hadn’t been forged it was the sort of certificate that could be given to someone born outside of the United States. But the certificate is specific about Obama’s birth in Honolulu, down to the 7:24 p.m. time.

‘It’s crazy,’ said Janice Okubo, director of communications for the Hawaii Department of Health. ‘I don’t think anything is ever going to satisfy them.’”

Okubo, who said that she gets weekly questions from Obama ‘Birthers’ that are ‘more like threats,’ explained that the Certificate of Live Birth reproduced by Obama’s campaign should have debunked the conspiracy theories. ‘If you were born in Bali, for example,’ Okubo explained, ‘you could get a certificate from the state of Hawaii saying you were born in Bali. You could not get a certificate saying you were born in Honolulu. The state has to verify a fact like that for it to appear on the certificate. But it’s become very clear that it doesn’t matter what I say. The people who are questioning this bring up all these implausible scenarios. What if the physician lied? What if the state lied? It’s just become an urban legend at this point.’”

If a long form certificate says “delayed registration of birth” or “out of state birth” that information MUST also appear on the short form Certification of Live Birth.

A long form copy of Obama’s original, Certificate of Live Birth CAN be released without Obama’s permission to “a person whose right to inspect or obtain a certified copy of the record is established by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction;” under Hawaii statutes. That means via a subpoena from a judge.

I certainly do have trouble believing that the Republican Governor of Hawaii, the Republican Attorney General of Hawaii and the Republican appointed Director of Health and Registrar of Vital Records would all perjure themselves and participate in a fraudulent activity to help a Democrat.

No one has perjured themselves. Whether they've participated in fraudulent activity remains to be seen. We do know these people have told some lies (like Lingle and Fukino) and made incorrect and misleading statements, evidently to avoid revealing the truth about Obama.

If a long form certificate says “delayed registration of birth” or “out of state birth” that information MUST also appear on the short form Certification of Live Birth.

***************

Exactly so. This is exactly WHY they will not produce a new COLB from their database, certify it, and hand it directly to waiting reporters.

This is WHY they won’t even produce, contrary to their own laws, an informational, uncertified copy of the selfsame COLB.

This is WHY they won’t, contrary to their own laws, give a copy (certified or otherwise) to persons who are descended from a common ancestor of Obama’s.

This is exactly WHY they will not speak to the authenticity of that online document.

IF that COLB is completely accurate and IS authentic and WAS certified by the State Of Hawaii, then there is NO logical reason for not having a new one printed at the DoH and passed directly to reporters.

There’s no logical reason, if the COLB is authentic, that Obama’s attorneys did not present the underlying paper document to the judge, instead requesting the judge to instead take note, in a FOOTNOTE, that FactCheck BLOG placed this image on their website.

It has been proven that the paper document itself has not been presented to the media. It has only been posted as a digital, unprovenanced image on websites that were CAMPAIGN advertisements, sponsored by the candidate and/or the Democratic party, then picked up later by a partisan BLOG. See jbjd’s website for details.

FactCheck blog alleged months later that their “representatives” “spent time” with the COLB at some unnamed point in time.

This was done anonymously, because to date NOT ONE PERSON from that blog has come forward to avow that he or she SAW this document and will attest that it’s legitimate. Nor do they state when their representatives visited the COLB, other than to write “recently.”

The persons who WROTE the article on the blog about the visit to the COLB do not anywhere state that THEY are the “representatives” who saw the document.

There’s no privacy issue involved here—he supposedly already released this information to the public. Therefore, there’s no logical reason for him not to have the Hawaiian Dept. of Health go through that same procedure that they allegedly did in June 2007, only this time to do it under the eyes of reporters, without the resulting document passing through his campaign, a campaign website, Democratic operatives, or a partisan blog.
