Basically, it comes down to this. I made a promise to my family get off of here, but continued to break that promise. There is sufficient momentum for the birth certificate issue to where any further research is unnecessary.
The fact that Hawaii refuses to authenticate or acknowledge producing the COLB that the libs insist that is real, along with the statements made to me by Dr. Alvin Onaka in late October, pretty much nixes any hope by the opposition that a real Obama 2007 COLB exists.
The libs can refute my research all they want, but it's not going change the reality that they are arguing about a nonexistent document.
It is they who are on the wrong side of reality, not me.
My last post says it all:

If anyone believes that the one and only scan image was produced by what appears in the Factcheck photos, then there is seriously something wrong with their eyesight.
There is nothing wrong with the eyesight of scores of FReepers who saw shadows under the letters on the Factcheck photograph of a "real COLB."

The image above is the photo I took of a real COLB using the same make and model of camera as Factcheck, except that I had a real COLB. The one on the bottom is the image with the shadows. Those pink arrows are pointing to them.
I would sincerely love to hear how the opposition explains those, but I gotta go.
I also leave with the challenge I made but never taken:
Make a real scan, naturally and honestly, that looks like the alleged "scan image."
No one can. It's impossible for several reasons. The colors of this image are so far off from the actual colors contained in a real COLB scan, that you cannot get there without extensive manipulation of the color curves.
Secondly, the background image and the text were deliberately subjected to heavy sharpening using an Unsharp Mask - but they were not done at the same time.
Lastly, that "funky" border, as one of my favorite critics described it, will not be exactly reproducible from any scanned COLB border in existence.
"Close" only counts in horseshoes.
No way. No how.
Oh, you may get close after playing around with all of the controls in Photoshop, but you will not get the border pattern right.
I know because I reproduced it (middle image), and I know how it was done - it was made separately and added to the image.

But, if you think you can do it, more power to you.
Rather than ragging on my research, which is what I do better than anyone, go ahead and do your own.
It's easy.
Oh, I forgot. You have to get a real COLB to do it.
Isn't it funny that none, nada, zip, zero of my critics has ever made a real COLB scan from a real COLB in over a year since I began my research, and actualy replicated what I did.
They'll make up some excuse for not reading all of my research report, like it was "too painful to read," and so forth. Then, they will do their own thing which is not remotely close to my thing.
Well, don't be discouraged: Factcheck never had a real COLB, either.
I would like to thank everyone who supported me and those who know me will be passing along the latest news on FR to me.
BUT, I am never logging back on FR as Polarik again.
That's a promise I will keep.
Your work will end up in a history book somewhere, I can say I witnessed it as it happened. Thank you sir for what you have done and I am sure what you will do in the future.
Enjoy your family and God bless you.
Come back and visit soon. I enjoyed the info you provided and look forward to your insight again. Don’t stay away.
Assuming the thread is still up, would you like for me to post the thread, wherein you and a whole swarm of noobs, were trying to get me banned, for daring to question the great Oz?
I backed away from it, told you why I was backing away from it, and told you to just wait and see, if this all wasn’t a huge, deliberate diversion. Even mentioned reliving Rathergate.
Turning the tables isn’t going to cut it, any more than you pretending to have doubts and to question this @$$hole now is going to cut it.
I agree. Who can tell a real from a fake with only scans of a document? You can’t you have to have the real thing in hand to do that. Otherwise all you can say is if the scan has been manipulated.... It still makes me shake my head.
By the way, it appears that I was removed from the ping list and didn’t receive Polarik’s pre-thrust at Danae. LucyT seems to have felt that I wasn’t showing Polarik enough respect, and has told me that she won’t be responding to my freepmails.
All I’ve ever been interested in is the truth, even if the truth is that Obama’s original CoLB on fightthesmears was reliable. In fact, for several months after he posted that JPEG on his website, I thought it was a done deal and he was qualified. It was analysis done by Polarik (as far as I know) and Israel Insider that opened up this thing. It seemed compelling at the time and it still seems compelling. But there is other evidence now that we must consider.
One other hard point in this mystery is that Polarik’s analysis was submitted to the court in the Berg vs. Obama case. There’s an affidavit from the forensic examiner who declared the Bush TANG documents to be forgeries, that same examiner said that Polarik’s analysis was compelling also. So if Polarik has been pulling our chain this whole time, he got the pros yanked big time. I doubt that’s the case.
What I think is the case is that Polarik is getting death threats, family pressure, and other stuff. He decided to give it a rest and the timing is bad, that’s all. Maybe he lied about his background, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal as long as he could explain himself. But he won’t be doing that, so the opposition has all the ammo they need to wipe out our position.
Just know that many of us appreciate all our hard work.
“Thank you for everything! I know how FR can eat up all your time...Mrs. 2ndDivisionVet sometimes complains. Good luck!”
Mine as well, with good reason. I use FR as a news source. Here, articles from the MSM et.al. are posted and then critiqued. I feel that gives me better insight into the validity of MSM claims. Plus, there are some REALLY sharp person that post here. I don’t always agree with them in every detail, but I am always astounded at the depth of thought by some here. Of course, there are average joes like myself...but there are some JEMS here.
BTW - 2nd Division Vet - You are a jem. It would have been an honor to serve with you back in the day.
Welcome to FR!
Goodbye Polarik
God Bless my FRiend.
Indeed, family comes first...please consider your amazing work as something that does serve your family.
I do hope you continue your quest and in some way we continue to benefit from it.
Filthy troll alert.
I dunno what you mean by turning the tables.
If you have analytical evidence, produce it. Anyone who just has a bunch of huffin’ & puffin’ when they could produce genuine evidence is worthless. Ask Danae. She produced her own Hawaiian CoLB under conditions that made her look like a troll, but I said her information would be valuable. I value information. If all you had to offer was huffin’ & puffin’ then I still don’t value your input.
Produce usable information. Show all of us that you are what you claim.
Don’t welcome that pondscum back.
Ya think! LOL
AND Danae was open when she realized she was mistaken ... and she was forgiving, too, but that’s grist for a different mill with my stinky foot in it.
Bill says that he enjoys the left being driven crazy on this issue. Yep, some of 'em are getting high blood pressure over it. Serves em' right.
No, back when the patriots would grab their rifles and end the problem. Nowadays, when liberals attack, we are afraid to shoot first cuz people would think we are being mean.
Oh crud. But many thanks for all your work, and I hope you’re back soon. I’m going to miss reading all of your analysis. If you’re a true FReeper - you’ll be back, regardless of your name. :)
I didn’t post troll like. I posted what I believed to be true. As soon as I was made aware of my mistake, I admitted it, took responsibility for it and posted the proof of my mistake.
How is that troll like? I was only trying to help and to give the information I believed to be true. I screwed up. I admitted it. How is that troll like?
I got hammered by Polarik, for forgetting to send more scans, which I did as soon as I realized it, and still... I never got any sort of apology from the guy. It still is true, Polarik has photos and scans of Obama’s COLB, and of mine, he says both are fake. I know for certain mine isn’t and I posted the evidence of that as well. That being said, leads to it’s own conclusions.
I feel for the man behind the name Polarik, but I fundamentally have to disagree with his conclusions. If not for the reasons I already stated, then for this alone. You can not tell if a document is fake or real from a photo or a scan. You have to have it in your hands to do so. All you can otherwise say is that the scan or photo has been manipulated, and those are two different objects. Main document and scan of same document are two different things.
I am not disagreeing with the man, all I know for 100% certainty is that my COLB is real and issued to me by the State of Hawaii.
As for the rest of his research, that has to be left for the real Documents experts, of which I am not one!
