This is basic stuff that I addressed back in June of last year. In my first blog post, on June 13, the day after the COLB image appeared on the Daily Kos, I compared the Kos COLB border to the borders from four other COLB's:
I stated that, "What is readily apparent is that the four other borders look quite differently from the border on the Kos image. Why does it look so weird by comparison??"
The real answer to that question would come about two months later when I replicated both the border and the Kos COLB and demonstrated that the border had been made separately from the body of the COLB and subsequently placed on top of it
[NOTE: if you compare my border comparison to the one that the fraud, 'TechDude' presented in his "explosive Atlas Shruggs exclusive" on JULY 20, you will see that he copped it from my June 13 blog post. He also copped an image copy of Michele's COLB scan that Michele, herself, sent only to me and that I first posted weeks before. No acknowledgements were made, which is what you'd expect a thief to do]
So, here it is, March 24, 2009, more than ten months after I announced to the blogsphere that Obama's COLB was bogus, and suddenly, we have people coming out of the wordwork, making claims of forgery as if I never existed or published four months of research.
Back in June, I noted that someone had used a tool like Photoshop's stamp or cloning tool cover over existing text and to assemble the final image. I didn't need to read the Exif data to know that it was run through Photoshop.
Now, everybody thinks they're Einstein with regards to the COLB forgery. The problem is that the actual Obama COLB forgery was NOT easy to make, and anyone who doubts that ought to try making one from an original scan of a real COLB.
Here's what I do not understand:
How on Earth is it possible, that a "Photochopped image" made in mid-June, is STILL being regarded as Obama's authenic, original, duly-certified paper COLB, by so many people in positions of government?
The really frightening thing, born out by direct observation, is that our Government servants rely soley on the Media to do the thinking for them, to such an extent that they don't know which side is up!

***I thank you once again for your analysis.
I lurked here back in June when you first started posting and can remember relaying the info to my husband (the world’s biggest skeptic). After several conversations with him as well as other family members they were absolutely convinced and to this day can not believe that no govt. official, judge, etc. thinks this COLB is a forgery!
I sincerely hope that very soon you as well as the attorneys working on the eligibility cases will have your day in court.
I, too believe that because this is not being reported in the MSM our govt. officials as well as conservative talk radio hosts will not touch it in depth.
P.S. You may consider this “basic stuff” but I have trouble with cut and paste. (No laughing.)
other than blackmail, there's really no other explanation, is there?
I am terrified by the judge that threw out the most recent case because it has been settled by “texting, twittering and blogging”. That’s our criteria of evidence now?
Are there going to be any criminals that need a trial as long as someone has put some evidence on a website? The attorney can say “Judge, there is no need to have a trial, my client has been proven innocent by texting, twittering and blogging. Here is the url.”
Ridiculous.
You got that right!!!
