KSB2424 3,173 Posted April 27, 2011 :putsontinfoilhat: [Lee Corso] Not so fast my friends! [Lee Corso] Smoking Gun is on the case!@#! So heres a few nutty points about the birth certificate sure to be seized upon by the nonbelievers: If the original document was in a bound volume (as reflected by the curvature of the left hand side of the certificate), how can the green patterned background of the document's safety paper be so seamless? Why, if Obama was born on August 4, 1961, was the Date Accepted by Local Reg. four days later on August 8, 1961? What is the significance of the smudges in the box containing the name of the reported attendant? In the This Birth box there are two mysterious Xs above Twin and Triplet. Is there a sibling or two unaccounted for? What is the significance of the mysterious numbers, seen vertically, on the documents right side? Finally, the Signature of Local Registrar in box 21 may be a desperate attempt at establishing the documents Hawaiian authenticity. Note to forgers: it is spelled Ukulele.

posty 2,810 Posted April 27, 2011 And... http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/04/orly_taitz_obamas_long-form_birth_certificate_should_say_negro_not_african.php In a development that will surprise no one, it turns out that President Barack Obama's decision to release his long-form birth certificate hasn't quieted members of the "birther" movement who promote the conspiracy theory that he wasn't born in the United States. "Look, I applaud this release. I think it's a step in the right direction," so-called "birther queen" Orly Taitz told me in one of her many media interviews this morning. "I credit Donald Trump in pushing this issue." But she still has her suspicions. Specifically, Taitz thinks that the birth certificate should peg Obama's race as "Negro" and not "African." "In those years ... when they wrote race, they were writing 'Negro' not 'African'," Taitz says. "In those days nobody wrote African as a race, it just wasn't one of the options. It sounds like it would be written today, in the age of political correctness, and not in 1961 when they wrote white or Asian or 'Negro'." Taitz says she's not giving up her fight. She also claims Obama isn't a "natural born citizen" because she uses a standard that requires both parents to be American citizens -- a misreading of the Constitution which if enforced would have rendered several other American Presidents ineligible. Obama predicted this type of reaction from Taitz and those he described as "carnival barkers" in his comments to reporters on Wednesday. "I know that there's going to be a segment of people for which, no matter what we put out, this issue will not be put to rest," Obama said. "We do not have time for this kind of silliness. We've got better stuff to do. I've got better stuff to do. We've got big problems to solve. And I'm confident we can solve them, but we're going to have to focus on them -- not on this."

ETA Since it's at the bottom of one of your pedantic, droning posts, I'll quote the exact part: I'm sure you're not. The most information I've found on this topic is at the Sean Hannity website forum, where there are people literally obsessed with this topic. There is a ton of information available there that I hadn't seen before; many knowledgeable people and a couple of kooks (on both sides of the political spectrum). Nonetheless, the conversations on this topic there take place at the highest levels: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have a doorknob up your ass about everything I write. That forum talks about the subject in depth. There are clearly people there who have devoted waaaay more time than any of us ever will to the subject, and talk about Vattels and other germane topics. That is what is meant by "at the highest levels". If you can find another site which talks about the subject in as detailed and obscure a manner, I'll be surprised. What you've tried to do is turn me into a birther, when I've repeatedly said that I believe Obama was born in Hawaii. It's impossible to be a birther while believing that Obama was born in Hawaii - but that doesn't stop you slimy leftists from doing the same immoral sh!t over and over again. You are character assassins; you resent that which you do not possess yourself. But you do what you gotta to keep convincing yourself you feel alright, Frank. I know how weak and soft you leftists are with that stuff. You need to self-affirm like babies need a nuk.

IMMensaMind 462 Posted April 27, 2011 Here's a question for those interested in continuing the conspiracy talk: If this is just a scan of the original long form birth certificate, why does it contain Illustrator layers?

posty 2,810 Posted April 27, 2011 Here's a question for those interested in continuing the conspiracy talk: If this is just a scan of the original long form birth certificate, why does it contain Illustrator layers? A non-birther asks the question Saw something similar in email... I noticed the possible "layers" in this document almost immediately. When I had the .pdf file of the BC open in my browser then used Command + Tab (on an Apple computer), to switch to another app, I noticed that the majority of the text disappeared. I recreated the effect numerous times. As others have suggested, when you open the BC in Acrobat (full version) and strip out the "Metadata" and "Deleted or cropped content" this SAME EXACT TEXT disappears leaving only a few bits of type, date stamps and all or part of three signatures: his mother, the attendant and the local registrar. Also, some of the digits used in the Aug. 8, 1961 date stamp disappear. The full background and the April 25, 2011 stamp remain. I am making no "birther" claims, but CLEARLY this document has been altered. If it had been photographed or scanned, the pixels containing all the information (the document background, the type, the signatures, date stamps and the check marks) would be part of ONE pixelated image. As someone who uses Photoshop/Adobe Creative Suite daily, it is my belief that had the BC been scanned or photographed, the layering would not happen. Again, I am making NO "birther" claims or conclusions. But I believe this document has been altered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IMMensaMind 462 Posted April 27, 2011 Saw something similar in email... Here's my theory: I think that Obama is focking with the same people to continue to use the issue to marginalize Republicans and simultaneously appear to be innocent completely. I think he purposely released a document with vector/editing layers. I still think he's hiding quite a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sizzle 0 Posted April 27, 2011 :lol: Obama releasing his long form birth certificate accomplished a few things simultaneously. One, it stops the momentum that this silly charge was gaining around the country. The polls don't lie, and he was seriously beginning to be hurt by the constant bombardment of this issue. Two, if the fringe right now want to claim it's a fake, it will keep the issue alive just enough for him to paint the entire right as a bunch of crazies with no ideas. My gut tells me Obama doesn't want this issue to go away completely. He did however have to address it because it was beginning to take on a life of it's own. He has now taken back the high ground on the issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
