“Thus, both his mom and dad were visiting him that Xmas from places of residence that were thousands of miles away. Obama’s appearance in the airport photo is consistent with how he looked on the couch with his Indonesian stepfather (i.e., both in terms of his face and being a little chunky) and his face looks like the one in his 5th grade picture as well. His mother’s face looks young, but she also still looks young in the Indonesian photo and the length of her hair in both photos is consistent. I don’t know when her hair grew out, but when she was in college, I assume it was closer to the short length we see here:”
This is correct.
All the people in it, Sr, Jr and Barack Jrs, Mom, are
consistently pictured relative to what they looked like in 1971. Barack Sr has a bit of age on him, Barack Jr is 10, and his Mom is consistent, as you mention, with picture in Indonesia and other early 1970s pics. She looks young, yes, but then was only 28.
There are clear and obvious reasons to consider that the photos had to have been taken in 1971. For one, you have to assume that the boy who looks exactly like 10 year old Barack Jr is someone else. The nutty theory that it would have been Malik come to HI to pack, has the problem that in 1961, Malik would have been 2 years old.
Further, the whole ‘nonsense’ of the ‘wedding picture’ should stop, inasmuch as TIME did *not* use that as a caption, and ObamaFile website gave the correct setting as a pic of them in 1971. Nobody, except some on this thread, think it is a wedding picture.
“Thus, I think one has to ignore some evidence to conclude that the airport photo was from 1961 rather than 1971.”
Absolutely!
I think one has to acknowledge that it isn't just the supposition that it is a wedding picture (which I never said) that leads people to think the pictures were taken earlier. It is also the terminal it was taken in, and the timeline of that terminal. You can disregard the "wedding picture" conjecture completely, and still address the terminal timeline on its own merits.

Sorry if I missed anyone here ping-wise, but if the people who think Obama’s certificate looks fake (borders, “FILED” versus “ACCEPTED”, faint impression of a seal that is hardly visible from the front, or anything else) want to REALLY AND TRULY know the truth, then join me in pinging Jim Robinson to ask him to have me send him my certified, signed, embossed copy that looks 100% like Obama’s. Put your money, your brains, anything else where your mouth is. Do it. Ask Jim Rob to accept my offer; you will find out you are totally wrong. Just do it, for God’s sake, unless you are afraid of the truth.
WOSG, good job, you have more patience than I do.
<<<Still laughing over here. The blind leading the blind, and like I said, it’s funny to me now that this is relegated to the proverbial backroom.
No person who does not ping JimRob asking me to put up or shut up should be given any credence from here on out.
