In June, the Obama campaign released a digitally scanned image of his birth certificate to quell speculative charges that he might not be a natural-born citizen. But the image prompted more blog-based skepticism about the document's authenticity. And recently, author Jerome Corsi, whose book attacks Obama, said in a TV interview that the birth certificate the campaign has is "fake."
We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.

factcheck is with Annenberg, Obama is with Annenberg; got it?
Obama goes to Hawaii for a week in 2008, and suddenly another birth certificate shows up at “factcheck” with a 2007 date on it.
He’s dirty, book him!
Then why do they have so many posts correcting things that Obama said, including his recent ad that attacks McCain? And why did Dick Cheney use the site in his own defense?
Get it?
My email to factcheck.org..
Your inspection of the document you claim to be Obama’s Birth Certificate does nothing to refute the detailed analysis performed by credentialed fraudulent document analyzer, “Techdude”.
Furthermore, the sloppiness of you analysis is revealed in your statement that it is a “Certification of Birth” (your quotes).
There is no such document.
Hawaii issues a document called a “Certification of Live Birth”.
That’s a FACT - you should CHECK it.
If you can’t even quote a title correctly, how can we have any faith in the rest of your analysis?
Bump!
Brooks Jackson Director, Annenberg Political Fact Check
Brooks Jackson is a journalist who covered Washington and national politics for 34 years, reporting in turn for The Associated Press, the Wall Street Journal and CNN.
The link provided by pissant above has some good info. There seems to be enough irregularities to at least question it's authenticity, although it will probably be contained to the blogosphere.
That said, based on his performance so far I would prefer running against Barack Hussein than Hillary so let him run and let's enjoy the gaffes.
I read an article Saturday that claims Factcheck is owned in part by David Axlerod, the same David Axlerod that is running Obamas campaign. Recently there was an article that said Obama and axlerod created a life story for Obama. This was in plans for him to run for president.
So, I would ignore anything Factcheck reports. Anything axlerod is involved in will, I think, give a positive spin for Obama.
That will or will not be the truth.
That is not good enough. The American people need the truth.
If Obama is lying, I believe Bill & Hillary Clinton will be all over this during the convention.
They would send Obama packing so fast our heads would spin.
By the way, 5 minutes of research shows that Obama is involved with the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, not the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania.
There is a difference.
BTW—in my opinion, I think neither the courts nor the msm give rat’s @$$ whether this is true or false—but it is important that this thing be run into the ground and the light of truth shone on it to reveal either truth or falsity, for the sakes of those who care.
It’s the same group of ‘Annenbergs’ though. What is your point?
I continue to run into people on FR who post articles that have already been posted many, many times.
“This issue is more important than any other aspect of this campaign. The people trying to whitewash this apparent massive fraud, should be more concerned about the importance of our laws, and the future of America in that regard. Every candidate should be made to PROVE THEIR BIRTHRIGHT AND CITIZENSHIP and have it scrutinized - just like every US citizen has to do when they sign up for Social Security or other government program....”
I could not have put it better.
Then again, with the RATs they are nothing if not FRAUDULENT. If they really were open and honest about their intentions, they would be run out of the country in a New York minute.
Location of birth - Honolulu
Then why do they have so many posts correcting things that Obama said, including his recent ad that attacks McCain? And why did Dick Cheney use the site in his own defense?Get it?
Easy, plausible deniability. By pretending to be fair and balanced they don't have to be either and can actually form public opinion by supporting the biggest lies of their candidate....
Who it just so happens help found the group that provides all their funding along with an admitted terrorist bomber who has worked all of his life to overthrow this country's government by any means necessary including murder and terror....
In the most SERIOUS business of electing the leader of the Free World, and the POTUS, there are MILLIONS of people involved. To find the one fish that does Obama in requires hordes of people following as many threads as can be found to properly vet a candidate by his opposition. IF Obama is unqualified, whether it be a substance issue (foreign policy, abortion, taxes) or other issue (COLB, associations, etc), it may very well be the combined injuries to Obama that helps put McCain on top. I always bear in mind the notion of [political] "death from a thousand cuts".
Somethings rotten in Denmark. Reckon he’s been there too.
This is, as predicted, straight out of the
Kerry SF180 playbook:
Just show the document to In-The-Tank media pals,
and not the general public.
Annenberg’s photography is even worse than the previous
junk. And the analysis of the previous has educated BHO’s
people, who have now had lots of time to build a better forgery.
This won’t get settled unless addressed in court, or
Hillary decides to use it as a weapon.
