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.

Exactly. There's arguments of much more substance to be made against Obama.
What is also indisputably true Is that the COLB that the Obama campaign has proffered for proof of Obama’s natural born citizenship is a document that is devoid of the normal Indications of provenence that one expects to see on an official government document that enables it to be authenticated. It has no birth certificate number, no official State of Hawaii seal, and no official signatures. It looks to be in every way a crude forgery. The question should be, why has the Obama campaign not released indisputable evidence of his natural born citizenship? The WORST that should happen is that he does so, and this issue gets laid to rest. We will have provided a valuable service to the American people in satisfying a question of his constitutional eligibility and can devote our energies to exposing him for the radical crypto-Marxist that he really is. Or we will have shown that a presidential candidate is willing to defraud the American people by proffering an illegally altered government document to enable his election to the highest office in the land. This could possibly lead to felony criminal charges against persons in the Obama campaign. The Obama campaign is amazingly quick to respond to real and imagined slurs. They are suspiciously silent on this. I suspect that they are hoping that it will remain unexamined, and are counting on their in the tank MSM allies to hush it up.
We already know that a corrupt Democrat Congress will not vote to impeach and remove corrupt Democrat presidents from office despite clear evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors. We know that Democrats almost NEVER resign when they have been caught in various forms of political criminality. Should (GOD forbid) Barack Hussein Obama ever take the oath of office, and it is subsequently proven beyond a reasonable doubt that he is NOT natural born, than there will be no legal way to remove him from office. This could (at best) lead to a constitutional crisis and worst a civil war. Not a War Between the States, but an honest to God fight over who controls the government.
This is NOT a subsidiary issue. It is of greater importance constitutionally than Obama’s position on health care, Iraq, the energy policy, or national health care. It is crucial to our standing as a constitutional republic.
We should be insisting the he release the proper documents. We should not be apologetic about upholding the constitution. We already have proof positive as to what an inveterate liar that he has already shown himself to be as seeks to create myths about himself.
“In Kenya, where Obama’s father is from, a second birth certificate for Obama was issued and registered with Kenya’s government. “
That means nothing because Kenyan law does not override US law.
And if Obama pulled any funny business with his birth certificate he would be in serious trouble for falsifying a document.
Impeachment and banished for US Senate.
Maybe prison time?
We must continue in our great adventure.
Tally Ho!
FactCheck has a good case for being obfuscating. They have cropped out any of the evidence that shows their paper COLB is bogus.
Why aren't you writing posts about the "other issues?"
While you're pondering that answer, why did FactCheck say, in its Aug 26 update to this article, dated Aug 21, that "they did not learn anything about the 'security paper' that COLBs are printed on," when they were allegedly fondling OBama's real COLB six days earlier?

“Why aren’t you writing posts about the “other issues?””
Speaking without reference can make you look silly. It doesn’t take long to check a profile.
What the heck are you talking about?
“What the heck are you talking about?”
You asked me why I am not writing posts about other issues. I find it a bit funny that I am the one being accused of being a noobie and a troll, yet I am the only one who seems to know how to click on a screen name and look at the submitted articles.
