I found out that the U.S. passport agency issues official and diplomatic passports to government officials through the travel office of the corresponding government agency. So Obama’s (burgundy) official passort would have been issued through the U.S. Senate’s travel office. (I’ll call for more details on Monday.) The specific government agency’s travel office provides its employees with the passport application forms which document the requirements for obtaining an official’s passport.

I also found out that government officials still retain their blue civilian (tourist) passport. It isn’t “replaced.” Officials may travel with their government passport ONLY when on official state business. So if they’re in Europe for official business but want to pop over to Paris for the weekend, they must use their civilian passport to go to Paris.

Does the travel office then verify the information or do they rely on the applicant to tell the truth?

Since Gibbs stated that “they” posted the COBL on the internet, it’s time to bring charges of fraud against “they” - AKA Bambi and Co.
