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.

I've got them by the short hairs this time!
Did you mean the document is signed and then the seal is crimped into the paper over the signature?
It’s a lot easier, neater and more natural to sign on a smooth flat surface.
Has anyone ever seen well over 6,000 posts before, and counting?
Excellent, can you adjust the timing on it to hold the final image of Farrakan for a few seconds?
Thanks for the link.
What an amazing website!
Under “Black Power” section at http://www.theobamafile.com/I found this interesting quote by Obama about Malcolm X.
(2006) In October, Obama publishes “The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream,” which details his views of politics and his vision for the future of the U.S. government and its people.
Malcolm Xs autobiography seemed to offer something different, Obama wrote. “His repeated acts of self-creation spoke to me; the blunt poetry of his words, his unadorned insistence on respect, promised a new and uncompromising order, martial in its discipline, forged through sheer force of will.”
He added: “Malcolms discovery toward the end of his life, that some whites might live beside him as brothers in Islam, seemed to offer some hope of eventual reconciliation.”
The line I am referring to is the one where Obama talks about Malcolm X’s acts of self-creation..isn’t this what Obama is doing...self-creating a new person from who he really is,
Generally. But in the posted pictures (factcheck and authentic certs) the signature is just rubber stamped separately and they didn't both with a pen and ink signature underneath the seal. My point was only that they are both done (and only readable) from the back. And that was confirmed by Polarik.
Didnt Obama have a fake Presidential Seal made?
Who made that for him??
Could that same person be involved in making a fake embossing seal?
I wouldn't have charged the campaign a penny for this either :P
My seal is free! :))
See post 6257, all the seals and signatures are made from the back and can be read from the back. Also note that Polarik has now said that the seal was embossed onto the paper (not photoshopped). So if you are going to post something, try to make it relevant.
Polarik, in NJ all of the birth certificates in Hudson County had to be null and voided. There was an entire scam going on with people making fake birth certificates for illegal aliens. Anyone that was really born in Hudson County had to go to the state capital to have new ones issued.
I wonder if the seal on this FactCheck COLB is a counterfeit that has been used for illegal aliens. ICE actually started an investigation of illegal aliens in Hawaii this past summer. Maybe your findings with this seal may interest them.

Why, you going to make me stand in the corner?
LOL!!!!!
I needed that bit of humor during all this craziness!
Surely a post with well over 6,000 hits deserves a sticky post or Btt!
And don’t call me Shirley!
Shirley you can’t be serious.
Polarik
In your photo imaging program, if you inverted the colors...what shows up? Any other flaws that would show up in that environment that the normal color photo doesn’t show?
It almost looks as if the Caduseus on the fake one was also smaller than the original..in addition to not being aligned correctly.
Yes the FReople/Dimensional Door threads got quite large, as did the Hobbit Hole threads.
The system will only support 65,535 posts on a given thread.
Guess how we know...
You can post whatever you want. I have posted repeatedly the same constructive criticism of the prior Polarik analysis which was that the COLB photographed by factcheck was produced by someone with a seal, rubber stamp and hashed paper used by Hawaii. The border and the contents, not including the seal, rubber stamp, and date stamp were either created on the Hawaii computer or created with photoshop.
Either way Polarik is now investigating how the seals are different (one is from 2002 and the other from 2007). But he will admit that the seal on the factcheck document was created on actual paper before the document was photographed and not photoshopped like he originally said (and his analysis was indeed valid for the Kos and Smears documents, just not for the factcheck docs).
My constructive criticism has made and will make this a more solid case. Perhaps now that you understand that the seal is made from the back and not from the front, that you may still have a few more things to learn here.
They are different. The one on the left is from the 2002 DeCosta COLB and the Obama one on the right is from 2007.
