If you read comments at the blog, then you read something I wrote at the time as to why this alleged manual does NOT pass the sniff test. I just told you the manual was dated AFTER Obama was born.
Doesn’t seem that way, for if you had, what I wrote about Mr Corsi wouldn’t have surprised you.
Considering how picky you get over the names Anna and Soebarkah, it's extremely surprising and out of character to be less picky over an alleged manual that is dated AFTER Obama was born and has not been proven to applicable to the procedures that would have or should have been used on Obama's alleged long-form birth certificate. The discovery of the manual is a little "too" convenient.
Is it getting so that an opinion isn’t acceptable any more?
No. No one said any opinion isn't "acceptable." I asked WHAT prompted the action suggested within the comment you made earlier.
If you mean me writing to Ladysforest that Corsi could use a kick in the bum, I think SHE knows what I meant by that. The comment wasn't addressed to you.
I am the one that “conveniently” found that 1961 VSIM. Now, I know you are not implying that I played some deep game, because that would be rude and wrong.
Prior to contacting the CDC headquarters I contacted about 30 State Archivists to see if any copy existed in a State Archive - because Corsi had implied to have found his copy in the HI SA.
Turns out that prior to my contacting the CDC, Zullo and Corsi had, and that’s when Zullo had the extended go round with the same manager/director (as it turned out) that I contacted. She is the one that TOLD me the one she was sending me was the thing I was after. She was bitchy about it. I will state again that I do not think it likely that just a couple of race codes were changed 10 days after obama was born.
On page eleven of that manual it instructs that if race of one parent is omitted or unknown - code race of child the same as the race given of the other parent.
and
If the racial entry for both parents is omitted or unknown, code 1 WHITE.
Recall - THESE particular codes were NOT applied to the certificate forms in the offices at Honolulu. These federal codes were entered onto punchcards to later be compiled into summaries. The FEDERAL coders were looking at microfilms of the birth certificate forms, not the paper forms. The federal coding had nothing whatsoever to do with anything other than collecting statistical data/trends. It had no impact whatsoever as to what appeared on those birth certificates. Some codes likely paralleled ones used at the local level, but other than that these federal code books have zero impact on this topic.
The way Corsi was spinning this one would think that the feds first used (in ‘61) the code chart that The Daily Pen had up, then revised the manual - but only the race codes - ten days after obama was born, then revised the codes back to the way they were in 1968.
BUT the federal VSIM is completely unimportant really - because the coders never put those codes onto birth certificate forms, the federal coders were harvesting info from these certificates - not applying it.
