Were the Obama birth announcements tinkered with? (The microfiche version of photoshopping?)
After looking at the birth announcement closely, I found something rather unusual. I copied the two names from the birth announcement listing on the right to the one on the left. Look at the lower case "r" in Richard and the lower case "i" in Wright.
The letters in the Obama Sr. name appear to line up perfectly. However, the Richard Wright (just above Obama's listing has some issues. The letters don't line up exactly like Obama's. Why would this happen? Copy and Past?
I’m not seeing it
bit of a stretch don’t you think?
Never mind, I see what you are saying now. The jump in Richard’s name seems to be on that crease in the paper.
If people want a collection of news articles about the Obama birth certificate and the only news outlet to *consistently* post articles about this — go to WorldNetDaily, as they’re an excellent resource, all in one place — for a major news site.
You might reference the New York Times, or the Los Angeles Times, or the Washington Post, or even NBC or CBS or ABC or CNN — but why reference the MSM, when there is WorldNetDaily?

It’s now getting ridiculous. I fear this whole issue is some sort of trap.
Proof positive. I think you should devote even more time to this.
are you going to start paying for your wnd ads?
I’ve seen a couple guys do this before and it may be true but I don’t understand what I’m susposed to be looking at or why its important.
what has been established is that someone lived at the residence named. further, for many years many publications listed obama’s birth hospital elsewhere.
only after people started to dig into this a month or so ago did a lot of publications retroactively make the change to reflect the new address. the hospitals themselves will say nothing.
There were no computers in 1961. Pages were manually created on a Linotype machine. While it did a very good job, there were variations from line to line and word to word.
It would be much more interesting if all the letters were perfectly typeset.
I don’t see it...but the dotted line above the Obama announcement indicates there could have been a little cutting and pasting going on.
That appears to be the cut off of the line above it where Leo pasted in the other BO name from the other announcement.
What do I think? I think Obama should just cough up his long form BC and be done with this.
You are missing the point. I’m not suggesting that the “doctoring” happened in 1961. Hell, it could have happened in 2003. Where did these copies come from? microfiche? or did someone actually have a paper?
That is my thinking too.. It is a trap..
No, WorldNetDaily pays for those billboards, across the U.S. — I don’t... LOL...
You know..., the billboards that say “Where is the Birth Certificate?”... :-)
Pimp my blog. I can see how you got your nickname.
Well, if it is a trap, they sure are risking a lot by waiting so long. Hell, healthcare might not pass the house, cap and trade won’t pass the senate. And they are trying to trap us? doesn’t make sense.
You said — I fear this whole issue is some sort of trap.

I have said elsewhere that I’m detecting a “change in strategy” and that the leftists are actually co-opting this issue for themselves and finding it useful to derail conservatives. I’ve noticed this just recently.
This is what I said in another post...
Yes, it does appear to be a change in strategy and I noted that it was a “change” elsewhere. It seems to be a “developing strategy” actually. You know how some things work... you gradually come upon them or you stumble upon them. I think it may be that way with this, more recently.
I wrote the following elsewhere..., in a thread in which an article was trying to “tag” someone with this label of being a birther, while they were actually trying to distance themselves from it. It was like the article was “using” the birther designation to sidetrack the real issues that were being spoken about, by this conservative.
So, the comment I said elsewhere...

The leftists don’t want the issue to go away. It’s too useful to them. I posted the following in another thread about what someone said is “panic” setting in. What I see, instead, is a “strategy” developing by the leftists...
Well, here’s how it would work..., if you’re a conservative and you have ever said anything about the birth certificate issue, those leftists are going to know about it. And then, let’s say you’re giving some reasoned points on some legislation being pushed by Obama...
If it starts sounding too good or they can’t counter it — then it’s time to shift over to the “Obama birth certificate issue” — and the leftists will be the ones who raise it.
Then they try to paint that person *as* one of those who believes that Obama is not qualified to be President, because he has not shown a proper birth certificate.
At that point, they’ve just gotten you off your points in regards to Obama’s legislation that you’re trying to get out to the public and over into whether you think that Obama is qualified to be President or not.
The public sees and hears this, they forget all about the points you were making on the legislation that Obama is pushing and now the public thinks the whole issue was about whether Obama is qualified to be President or not.
The leftists love to get the conservatives over into that topic, because it means that this particular conservative can’t talk about the legislation that he originally wanted to talk about.
That’s how it works...
And that’s why the leftists are loving the Obama Birth Certificate Issue as a good issue for them to beat on and divert any conversation away from something else.
I think the birther issue is going to be useful to them...
As I said, this appears to be a “developing” strategy right now... (i.e, just recently)
Hey, i tried to leave the url blank. It made me put something in there. no pimping here.
