The picture of the computer printout looks like it may have been photo-shopped. The lettering on the left looks “too perfect” and is “too aligned” to be part of a contemporaneous picture of a tri-fold document. Any PhotoShop experts out there? Any DU lurkers care to comment?
This has been covered extensively by Ron Polarik on World News Daily and here. Ron convincingly contends that the Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) produced by the "zero" administration, first shown on the daily kos (I pronounce it chaos) and fact check. org was photoshopped and forged.
As Dobbs said, the Certificate of Live Birth is not a birth certificate, just a document that says a Birth Certificate exists.
The state of Hawaii has not certified this document, it has said that it has a birth certificate on file but it has not stated that it is a birth certificate from the state of Hawaii, that the COLB produced is connected to said Birth Certificate or where the Birth Certificate on file is from.
"Meanwhile… the state of Hawaii says it cannot release a paper copy of the president’s original birth certificate because it discarded the original document when its health department records went electronic eight years ago."
First I've heard this. How convenient, obviously efforts to forge a copy of the birth certificate that would pass close examination have not proved fruitful.
