Well it was certainly interesting to see just how far people would go in defense of No 47O44 being a mere coincidence and not at all calling the authenticity of the document into question.

I think the criteria for real or fake for many is this; “real” if I want what it says to be true, “fake” if I don't want what it says to be true. Evidence be damned.

The same people that say 0’s short form was a fake (despite it being vouched for by the Republican Gov of Hawaii) will (if we ever get to see it) say the long form is a fake also; based upon exactly that criteria.

It’s very good to consider motive, but don’t forget to focus on the motive of the central characters (Obama et al), while keeping a grasp on overall context.

And speaking of the Governor of Hawaii, consider what is the likelihood that government officials will lie to you in any given situation (I’ll let you assign a probability).

I don’t think the hawaii folks did vouch for it - if they did, I would like to see the exact words that they used

Sorry, but the Governor of Hawaii did NOT vouch for the on-line COLB.

Neither has Dr. Fukino, BTW.

You misquote what the governor said.
