You asked a very good question, which indicated an inconsistency with opendna’s posting at KOS:

The recent israelinsider posting also comments on this inconsistency:

“The only trouble with that statement is that McKinnon had already created the blank Hawaii birth certificate template for John McCain and the “Ahphorgerie” joke on June 12 before Fight the Smears had even published the birth certificate. Kos had published it that morning, about four hours earlier. Patricia DeCosta’s birth certificate surfaced in the blogosphere only a week later, on June 19. So how did he compare the documents? And why would he say it was the first he’d heard of the birth certificate controversy when he had already posted his own patently fake certificates.”

This reflects directly on McKinnon’s (aka opendna) honesty about his involvement and personal credibility.

I believe he has not been factual or fully disclosed his actual involvement with either the KOS or Fight The Smears versions of the birth certificate documents. He knows this situation has not only blown up and is now out of his control, but there is also a real possibility he has validated several laws, both state and federal.

SE Mom and all FReepers, kept up the good investigative work, as this is diffidently not a “Case Closed” situation or the time to “just move on”, nor will it be until Mr. Obama can demonstrate to all citizens the actual status of his citizenship.

Validated? Damn spell check...

Thanks for a great post. I’ll read “violated” for “validated,” unless you object. Welcome to FR.

"Houston, I think we have a problem...".

That observation nails the fundamental problem with McKinnon's "story". It needs to repeated throughout the blogosphere. This thing has spun out entirely out of his control and now he's looking for cover.

I think this is the underlying reason that the all important certification number is entirely blacked out. The CoLB never had one.
