t is now a virtual certainty that the "birth certificate" claimed by the Barack Obama campaign as authentic is a photoshopped fake.
The image, purporting to come from the Hawaii Department of Health, has been the subject of intense skepticism in the blogosphere in the past two weeks.
It has become even more suspect with the revelation that variations of the certificate image were posted on the Photobucket image aggregation website -- including one listing the location of Obama's birth as Antarctica, one with the certificate supposedly issued by the government of North Korea, and another including a purported photo of baby Barack -- one of which has a "photo taken" time-stamp just two minutes before the article and accompanying image was posted on the left-wing Daily Kos blog.
That strongly suggests that Daily Kos obtained the image from Photobucket, not the State of Hawaii, the Obama family, or the Obama campaign. Photobucket is not known as a credible supplier of official vital records for any of the fifty states, and the liberties that other Photoshoppers took with the certificates confirms this.

Why would anyone hide their birth certificate, unless it told a tale they didn’t want told ...
Exactly. Maybe he was really born a poor black sharecroppers son, with a brother named Steve Martin...
I like the one with Buckwheat :)
A lawsuit to keep him off the ballot in a conservative state -— AFTER the Dim convention would be in order by a grass roots organization not affilliated with the RNC.
A simple discovery request for the document.
The certificate is hosted on the official Obama website.

Yep.
hahaha . . . I was under the impression that the National Archives already had subcontracted out all their work to Photobucket.
Obama got the courts to “unseal” the Ryan’s divorce records, yet he keeps his birth certificate, which is needed to satisfy the Constitutional qualification to the Presidency “sealed”.
Doesn’t the FBI get involved anymore? The FBI should put a stop to this now.
Thanks for posting this.
For further reference, from the article:
There is one simple way for the candidate to clear up the issue once and for all: produce for public inspection and objective analysis the paper copy of his original Hawaiian birth certificate — if one exists. Ordinary citizens are required to produce one to get a passport or a driver’s license. Surely it’s not too much to ask from a man who aspires to hold the highest office in the land.
The issue is not whether Obama is black or white, Christian or Muslim. It is whether he was born in the USA and thus a citizen eligible according to the Constitution to run for President.
I have a hard time believing that if there was anything of substance here the Clintons wouldn’t have dug it out.
We can now use the terminology....."Obama was Decosta-ed" HAHAHAH!
I smell the all too familiar stench of the Clinton’s as I read this.
They aren’t behind bars, and they aren’t six feet under, so that smell isn’t contained yet.
Maybe I’m slow, but doesn’t a candidate have to prove they fit constitutional requirements to be president BEFORE they can even get their name on a ballot? If not, why not?
Maybe a GOP group can hire Dog the Bounty Hunter to look into it. He is in Hawaii.
