Why would an Obama supporter offer a forged document unless they’re trying to BAIT conservatives like ourselves to question it.
Because he was acting in a rogue way, thinking he was helping, the Obama campaign (the Smears website people, maybe, without authorization, thinking they, too, were helping, maybe) latched onto it initially without thinking it through, and now they're stuck with it.
It may not have been a planned Rope-a-Dope ploy by the campaign. And if it were, it would open them up to playing stupid games with the campaign, and forging official government documents to do so. That would be worth a question at a debate, such as "Do you think that forging an official government document to bait your opponents is as serious a charge as a president breaking into an opponent's office to steal campaign documents?"
