Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in the production of fraudulent Hawaii birth certificate images similar to the one endorsed as genuine by the Barack Obama campaign, and appearing on the same blog entry where the supposedly authentic document appears.
The evidence of forgery and manipulation of images of official documents, triggered by Israel Insider's revelation of the collection of Hawaii birth certificate images on the Photobucket site and the detective work of independent investigative journalists and imaging professionals in the three weeks since the publication of the images, implicate the Daily Kos, an extreme left blog site, and the Obama campaign, in misleading the public with official-looking but manipulated document images of doubtful provenance.
The perceived unreliability of the image has provoked petitions and widespread demands for Obama to submit for objective inspection the paper versions of the "birth certificate" he claimed in his book Dreams from My Father was in his possession, as well as the paper version of the Certificate of Live Birth for which the image on the Daily Kos and the Obama "Fight the Smears" website was supposedly generated.
Without a valid birth certificate, Obama cannot prove he fulfills the "natural born citizen" requirement of the Constitution, throwing into doubt his eligibility to run for President.
McKinnon, who says he is 25-30 years old, operates a website called OpenDNA.com and uses the OpenDNA screen name on various web sites and blogs, including his comments and diary on The Daily Kos. In recent years he has divided his time between Long Beach, California and Vancouver, British Columbia. He is a Democratic political activist, frequent contributor to the left wing Daily Kos blog, and a fervent Barack Obama supporter.

Another clear and logical thesis by David versus the “This doesn’t mean anything, bsers!”.
In FACT- he alluded to the Constitution twice in the interview. I turned on ABC Nightline last night to hear the full interview- unfortunately I drifted off a bit but heard him discuss constitutional requirments TWICE in the interview. I guess it’s time to go over to ABC and dig up the transcript- it must be online by now.
Something’s up.
Very true; but the appearance and connection makes one look again.
You have nailed this issue.
If Obama, the Oreo, had tried to get a top secret clearance years ago, he would have been turned down with this fake COLB. In fact he might have been arrested for faking the certificates.
Now, we have Freepers and other so called conservatives, who have zero problem with this apparent fraud. If Obama, the Oreo, becomes president with this issue unresolved, we might as well turn the keys to America over to anyone who wants them. This appears to be the ultimate act of illegal immigration, and those loudest re illegal immigration are saying nothing.
” Still treating the subject as if it is a leper colony.
I don’t understand. Dual loyalty, divided loyalty was a prime concern of the founders. They saw it as being a mortal danger to the Republic, given the power they entrusted the Presidency.
Yet the modern pundits do not see it as an issue. Where’s Glen Beck? Where’s Hot Air and Malkin? Where’s Laura Ingraham? All of whom waxed long about illegal immigration. Hypocrites? Cowards? Where are they?
Nevertheless we press onward, in the vanguard of this most fundamental issue. “
I didn’t understand.
I remember Hillary Clinton saying something similar, back in February?, along the lines as B.O. not being electable.
How did obama get a US passport?
Ok- the video of the Clinton interview is here:
http://abcnews.go.com/search?searchtext=transcript%20nightline&type=
On the right -click on “Bill Clinton’s Not Angry”
At roughly 12:35ish he mentions the Constitution issue first.
At roughly 6:30 ish he mentions it again.
This “IS” Bill Clinton. This “IS” not an accident.
Birth Certificate is not needed to obtain a passport.
Proof of citizenship is....the most frequently used proof is a birth certificate...what did obama use?
Again with the constitution. The second half of his statement would seem to negate any suspect negative allusions proferred by the first part. But the video tells a different story, to me anyway. He comes out with this very emphatic constitutional reference, using the self-satisfied tone of one who knows he's nailed it... then seems to catch himself, glances down and to the side to pick up another thought to cover the too-revealing comment.
Obviously, this is not an exact science, (and I detest those charlatan body-language experts that conjure meaning out of hay fever or tight underwear, like on O'Reilly's show), but we're now watching him with the advantage of more than 12 years of accumulated pattern. Reading him now is a much easier proposition.

Thanks. Beat me to it. Yours is the better link tho as it has both references.
They were fired for accessing the passport files of obama, clinton and McCain, not for stealing or altering the data in the files, so....the question remains...how did obama get a US passport?
If not Hillary personally, certainly her surrogates. But one thing I do remember her saying specifically—and commented on at the time—was how she was so much more preferable than Obama because she’s been thoroughly “vetted.” She said this more than once, and so did her surrogates. So this was a decided-upon meme. It seemed an odd, inside-baseball kind of thing to say that smacked of morse code aimed at reporters, not primary voters, who don’t use those kinds of terms. I read it as a invitation to do some digging. IMHO.
Obama would have had a passport from a very early age. If, as an adult, he just kept renewing them before they expired, he’d have had to come up with little original documentation.
"Ive been tested. Ive been vetted. I have been in the political arena in our country very intensely for 16 years. There are no surprises. Theres not going to be anybody saying, Well why didnt we think of that? or What, my goodness, what does that mean? I am going to be able to go up against any Republican who they nominate.
