On this issue, DL, I think you are absolutely right. As Kenny Bunk has repeatedly pointed out, what HI did was create an “abstract”. (Once, I believe [don’t have the cite] they even identified it as such.) An Abstract is nothing like an original LF BC. In this case, the info contained would be exactly what Obama wanted it to contain. If KB will forgive me, I’ll quote one of the times he made that case. He does it better than I do:

‘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.

As an ABSTRACT
it cannot purport to contain
ALL the info on the original document,
just what the ABSTRACTOR deems important.

[What the world] assumes is that this is the BC. It just ain’t.’

I follow with great interest what all the "Photoshop" people say about "layers" etc. etc. Based upon my experience, I believe they are correct. Where they go off on a bit of a tech-tangent, IMHO, is the reason for the layers. That, IMHO is because the WH are working with digital material to begin with. Instead of going to the files, or the microfilm, simply copying a Birth Certificate, certifying that copy, and faxing it to the WH, the HIDOH created a document from selected data on file, and gave a file to the WH.

The WH obviously, again IMHO, used the data to paste up a n "official" looking document. The experts pick it up as a phony because it IS. The reason for the rigamarole?

(A) There is "data on file" but no Birth Certificate
(B)Team Obama has decided there is material on file that must be kept private.

Again FW, ABSTRACTS and CERTIFIED COPIES are called for every day in every town in the US. Real Estate Closings. Auto Title Exchanges. Loans. You cannot have private property without them. If you are the buyer, your lawyer would insist on a CERTIFIED COPY of TITLE. OTOH, a friendly (or careless) loan officer might let you slide with an ABSTRACT of Title as part of your loan package. The DMV is not so lax. Try and foist an ABSTRACT off on those boys and it's no title for you!

This just ain't a big mystery ... but Team Obama has gone all out to make it one. The MSM has certainly helped. They are the friendly loan officer here!
