Now that I have shown definitive proof here why the border on the Obama COLB image looks not only different from what a real 2007 COLB border looks like, but also, that the border on this image could only have been created separately using a graphics program.
Let that sink in for a few moments before you read the next comment.
I used Factcheck's original, "birth_certificate_1" photo for the illustration above to prove that "Seeing is not always believing," especially with Photoshop at one's fingertips.
Here is the original Factcheck image:
The scan released by the campaign shows halos around the black text, making it look (to some) as though the text might have been pasted on top of an image of security paper. But the document itself has no such halos, nor do the close-up photos we took of it. We conclude that the halo seen in the image produced by the campaign is a digital artifact from the scanning process.
Other than being referred to as "(some)," I feel deeply honored...if not fully vindicated ;-)
I see the Fact Check border as a pasty imitation of the real deal.I find the absence of the seal on the early issues of the forgery followed by the magic appearance of the seal on the FunnyFotostm to be every bit as miraculous as the Shroud of Turin.
In sum, we have no proof of That One's provenance.
He might, for all we've seen, have been conceived in Cuba, delivered in Kenya, recitizened in Indonesia before coming home to roost in the TUCC.
This shape-shifting reptile changes before our eyes.
He says he's 250 years old; then says 200.
His running mate says hes not a day over 150--but Little Bily Richardson aka Crisco Kid says 120.
"Touch him where we may, Watson, he is false," observed Holmes.
The birth announcement--like his visit to Ramstein--was phoned in.
Canter forged the Goldwater-Birch Putsch--a little downstream Rose-Axelrod forged That One the Transformer.
The more pertinent documentation exists in Prairie Fire

Polarik has shown them both to be a shell game where there is no pea.
Thanks, Polarik and PhilDragoo. It’s easier to pick up a porcupine than let go. I planned to resign from The Ping List at midnight last night, but, there are a few loose ends we should try to settle.

“He might, for all we’ve seen, have been conceived in Cuba, delivered in Kenya”
(Cuba? Are we getting closer to a Malcolm X connection, or not?)

LucyT — courage and strength to you! Hold the line and all that ...
Listen, don't let the emotion get the better of you. We are all taking this election very deeply and very personally. I'm sick to my stomach, but that's not going to stop me until I find the person or persons behind the Obama COLB forgery.
Keep your chin up. Remember, it's still two months to go before BHO takes the triple "O", as`in Oath Of Office."
No - as it turns out, they just changed the way drivers licenses looked during the period between the two.
Oh, good. For a moment, there, I though that your state gave you one of those amnesty licenses meant for illegal aliens.
Yes. See the story and morphed image of Obama X at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2124444/posts
It doesn’t matter now.
I tend to disagree. I remember Richard Nixon. I remember Watergate. I recall that, compared to all of what our current POTUS has done, Nixon in Watergate seems like Alice in Wonderland.
Despite the dire prospect ahead, we need to keep in mind the "Peter Principle" that states:
"The cream rises to the top, where it spoils." In other words, in every hierarchy, people will tends to rise to their own level of incompetence, and stay there.
The only possible scenario is the forger prints out his complete forgery (color laser including the background), then obtains and uses the stamps before folding the documents and displaying them to Fact check for photographing. How does he obtain the rubber stamp and the embossing tool?
First of all, I will answer all of yours and anyone else's questions. I am in the midst of completing Part Two, which talks about the Factcheck photos rather exclusively. The reason why it is taking so long to finish, is because I promised someone that I would not be doing this anymore. So, basically, I'm going back on my promise to finish what I started.
Next, I need to know by what you mean, "no difference in the borders." Which borders, or which part of the borders look exactly alike?
Keep in mind that Factcheck's photos, when brought out to their original size, are 3 1/2 times bigger than the image of the 2007 COLB I used for display. The actual image size of the 2007 COLB is 2550 x 3300 pixels, and that might provide a better comparison.
Keep in mind that you are comparing a photo to a scan.
Now, I can explain all of what you ask, but in order to do so, I need to know what you believe about the COLB images that were produced by a digital scanner, and the COLB photos that were produced by a digital camera.
Please answer the following questions:
Ping to #52 and #53.
Good post, Polarik. We appreciate your hard work, and time spent away from your family. We all remember that only you had the expertise, and cared enough, to compare those COLBs.
Now there's a question no perp should ask Columbo!
# Obama's COLB image posted on Fight The Smears is a forgery?
Same as above
# Obama's COLB image posted on Factcheck.org is a forgery?
Could be, but only using the steps I outlined in the 6000 post thread: forge, print on hashed paper, emboss paper, stamp paper with notary stamp, fold, photograph.
# Obama's COLB image posted on Politifact is a forgery?
Looks the same as the first two.
-------------------
# All of the images listed above were scanned from Obama's real, paper 2007 COLB?
No way to tell. The borders on the three sites with scanned images have too many scanning artifacts to compare to the factcheck photo.
# All of the photos posted on Factcheck were made from Obama's real, paper 2007 COLB?
Yes, until I see evidence that a embosser and stamp were obtained by the O-team or they bought the tools to make the embosser and rubber stamp (e.g. laser engraver).
# All of the photos posted on Factcheck look exactly like Obama's real, paper 2007 COLB?
Can't tell. The lighting seems to be different in some of the photos.
# All of the info in these images and photos match the info in Obama's original birth certificate?
Unless the doc showed in the factcheck photos was forged, yes. For the others, can't tell.
Polarik, when you come back to address this thread; can you also give your thoughts as to why FactCheck has COLBs in different colored paper? I know I remember you saying you called the Dept. of Health and asked about the paper code. How can there be a gold and a green certificate on the FactCheck server?
Earlier this past week an article attesting to BHO birth in Hawaii mentioned two local papers published the event in their births announcement column. If so that should be easy to check out ...
When I was nosing around on the FactCheck server files, I found graphic files for the announcement. I posted a sample here:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2127901/posts?page=236#236
That file was linked to go out on another virtual server that resides on FactCheck, publicbroadcasting.net.
Then, on FactChecks page where they dispute the rumors, they link to the copy that was sent to TxDarling as a source. It looks like they created the announcement then used TxDarling as a 3rd party source. Very typical of propaganda.
