From A to Z: What's wrong with Obama's birth certificate?
Examine for yourself mounting evidence that president's document isn't genuine
obama is the king now
he could produce a birth certificate from Mars and the commies would still swoon and stand in line for miles at the county recorders office to vote 90 times for him
The “b/c” is a crude forgery. Read Jerome Corsi’s column on wnd.com just released. No one with an IQ over 75 could believe it’s genuine now. Bob
OK, I had presumed the BC was authentic, and was rather skeptical of WND on this, until I saw that video...now obviously the guy knows more about adobe illustrator than I do...but is he missing something? Because he seems pretty convincing, but its hard to believe there are not a chorus of experts denouncing the document if it is as obvious a fake as he seems to think.
This birther stuff reminds me how much I miss W. F. Buckley.
Again, guys: The evidence that what the White House posted is a certified copy of Obama’s original Certificate of Live Birth is that Hawaii’s Department of Health says so: http://hawaii.gov/health/vital-records/obama.html
Look at that URL. It’s to hawaii.gov. That’s the government of the state of Hawaii. They issue the authentic Hawaiian birth certificates, and they vouch for Obama’s. Maybe White House staff did touch up the document — I don’t know — but if the issuing authority says it’s real, as they do, then we’re left arguing over nonsense.
I am confident that paper money from the U.S. Bureau of Printing and Engraving is not counterfeit. That’s not based on forensic examination; it just has to be, by definition. I know my driver’s license is legit because I got it from the California Department of Motor Vehicles. Forgery is a problem, but no one worries about people forging their own signatures; it’s impossible by definition. Sounds silly, but the issue in this thread is that level of nonsense.
The Hawaii Department of Health says: “On April 27, 2011 President Barack Obama posted a certified copy of his original Certificate of Live Birth.” Game over. Move on.
I sure miss W. F. Buckley.
The main thing wrong is you can’t validate a document’s authenticity from an image. You need to examine the original. Only the original document can be used as proof. Unless they are granting a document examiner direct access to the actual document, we must assume that the posted one could likely be a fake.
In the first place, there is no BC. What the WH received from the HIDOH was a digitally prepared ABSTRACT of data on file with the HIDOH. It is a newly created document, not a copy of an existing LFBC.
What the WH did was to COPY that ABSTRACT and release it to the press, allowing everyone to assume that it was a copy of the LFBC.
That the world, including WND, assumes is that this is the BC. It just ain't. IMHO, the hysterical and always slightly misleading prose of WND would be amusing if more read it carefully.
As we say in Maine, "They's always 'bout half a bubble off plumb."
