Onaka curiously only says that the information matches the original! More weasel words drafted by a lawyer.

It's time to parse the weaselness and party.

Onaka's verification to Bennett -
"I certify that the information contained in the vital record on file with the Department of Health was used to verify the facts of the vital event."

The backside of the Hawaiian COLB:

So class is there difference between the two statements?

IMO one word comes to mind that applies to both instances...abstract...so I say no, there is no difference.

Seizethecarp says it best on this thread...
Onaka does not say the copy of the COLB you attached “is a true and correct image of the copy of the original 1961 BC made from the bound archival volume certified by me and given to President Obama’s attorney.”

I certify that this a true copy
OR
AN ABSTRACT
on file at the
Hawaii State Department of Records.

By not specifying whether the digital files they released are an ABSTRACT, or a CERTIFIED Copy of an actual document on file, Hawaii keeps their grass skirts clean. What they released is an ABSTRACT of Data on File. It was a digital file, scanned from a variety of sources.

It was this mélange of digital data that Team Obama homogenized into a single, digitally created, cut and pasted file, on a background of certificate "Safety Paper," which was released to the press, who obligingly refer to it as "The Birth Certificate." It is not a Birth Certificate. It is not a certified copy of a birth certificate. If it were a "Certified Copy," it would have said that. It is not a document, per se, but a virtual image.

This is the nexus of the Posse's work on that particular non-document. And they can prove it.
