The lawyers arguing for Obama in the eligibility case, at least some of them, have to know the truth. They would have explored closing the cases by providing a birth certificate to the court. The decision to argue on ‘standing’ and not provide a direct refutation must have been debated.
So its a fair call that the Perkins Coe lawyer that picked up a document in Hawaii - and handed it to some PDF/scanning/potential forger was in on the game.

The decision to argue on standing and not provide a direct refutation must have been debated. About two and a half years ago in the Hollister or the Berg case against Obama, I believe it was Robert Bauer (now White House Counsel) who is quoted as saying it would "be an embarrassment" if Obama showed his birth certificate.

Taking a look around...
and I found this at http://www.theobamafile.com/_eligibility
"She said opening up such evidence could be an "embarrassment" to Obama, and it's up to Congress to call for impeachment of a sitting president.
There's more here . . .
Well, we mustn't embarrass Obama.
This is the same argument Obama's lawyers presented in the original "Birther" case filed by Phil J. Berg, Esq, a former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania; former candidate for Governor and U.S. Senate in Democratic Primaries; former Chair of the Democratic Party in Montgomery County; former member of Democratic State Committee, back in 2008.
The Obama team contented itself with a motion to dismiss the case and a protective order. In these motions, Obamas lawyers argued that revealing the information (birth certificate, citizenship in other countries, college admissions records etc.) would "cause a defined and serious injury" to Obama and/or the DNC. They argued that revealing these documents raises a "legitimate privacy concern" and the above mentioned risk that "particularly serious embarrassment will result from turning over the requested documentation."
Makes you wonder, what's on that birth certificate -- or not on that birth certificate -- that could be soooooo embarrassing to the Obamamessiah?

Another inconsistency.
So what was so embarrassing and that would cause "serious injury" to Obama and the DNC in his "released COLB?" I don't see the big serious injury or embarrassment in Obama's latest art work. More like the reason to forge Obama's COLB.
