The Orly B/C isn't a forgery based on the Bomford B/C.
It might very well turn out to be a forgery - that's why it need to be authenticated against the registry.
But its not a forgery just because somebody made their own fake.
Neither it is a forgery just because somebody else made a version with different letters and numbers.
And if a thousand gaywads from SomethingAwful make a thousand new forgeries tomorrow, each with its own spectacular backstory, that still doesn't reflect on the authenticity or otherwise of the Orly B/C
Only comparison with the primary sources can tell us about the authenticity of the Orly B/C.
This seems to be the logically proper conclusion. If a guy counterfeits a dollar, does that mean the dollar in your pocket is counterfeit?
Ridiculous. Once again, the anti-birthers seem to come out of this round bleeding as a result of their own flailing.
*tih remains agnostic on the BC issue though the circumstantial developments do tempt.
you speak the TRUTH.
The Orly original has 'K. F. Lavender” and the number is 47,644
The hacked one is E.F. Lavender and 46044.
Unless that's the wrong way around - the 'Double Take Thread' is over 1800 posts and I can't be sure if there's been a synthesis yet.
I think you're right. As I recall, she wasn't making a big splash about the Kenyan BC UNTIL it could either be authenticated or debunked as a forgery. I looked at a copy of it on her website, and she seemed to be playing down its significance untiul she was certain.
IMO, this is just more Rahm Emmanuel orchestrated attack to try to discredit the BC before we know if it is real or not!!
Well said.
