#1 is the one I already addressed. There is no way to know if it is Obama’s COLB because the print is illegible. But it appears to be missing 2 line that are on Obama’s alleged COLB. Right under the fold should be FATHER’S NAME, with BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA directly underneath. Those 2 lines are missing. This really doesn’t even seem to be the same COLB.
#2 is the other one I talked about, where the circle on the top fold distorts but the “authenticating seal” doesn’t.
#5 similarly doesn’t bend with the fold.
#6 similarly doesn’t bend with the fold, although with the right side of the paper held down the page is flat enough that it shouldn’t necessarily bend.
#7 there’s no way to know if it’s Obama’s COLB or not.
So I’ve addressed all of these. None of them has a seal that bends with the fold, although #2 and #5 have angles that would REQUIRE it to noticeably bend.
Do what I did. For #2 and #5, take a piece of plastic or an overhead transparency and press it against your computer screen. With permanent marker trace the outline of the circle that is on the top fold and then trace the outline of the “seal”. Take the transparency and lay it against a plain sheet of paper and just look at it where your eyes don’t try to make it 3D. Figure out the radius of the top circle and draw a circle of that size; then compare the folded top circle with a true circle to see how the shape differs. Do the same thing with the “seal” and see how the shape of the supposedly folded “seal” compares with a perfect circle.
You can do the same thing with all of these photos. That “seal” is and remains round on all of them, regardless of what the paper it’s supposedly on does.
I have not ignored any of the photos. There is not one photo that proves there was a 3-dimensional seal really on a piece of paper having Obama’s name on it. But there are 2 images of a “seal” on Obama’s COLB that doesn’t bend when it’s supposed to, and one image of a seal on a COLB other than the one with Obama’s name on it.
No images proving a real “seal”. Two images strongly suggesting a “Photoshopped” seal. Two images that are inconclusive of anything. That’s what Factcheck posted.
Well B, it’s good that we can be clear about where we differ.
