The Truth about Obama's Birth Certificate
Shut 'em down, Barack. The truth, is so much better than attacks some times.

Quote:
Summary
In June, the Obama campaign released a digitally scanned image of his birth certificate to quell speculative charges that he might not be a natural-born citizen. But the image prompted more blog-based skepticism about the document's authenticity. And recently, author Jerome Corsi, whose book attacks Obama, said in a TV interview that the birth certificate the campaign has is "fake."

We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.

With photographs. Next.

Unless I see it personally how do I know it's not fake? Everyone in the U.S. needs to verify it for themselves. Barack can mail it to me, then I'll mail it to someone else and so on and so forth. Due to the lengthy nature of the process, I think the elections need to be suspended until it is finished and Bush should reign until then.

No, but we'll get a lot of people who will see these facts, ignore them, and continue spewing the EXACT SAME 'Obama's birth certificate is fake' crap as they have all along.

all i know, it's another smear against him that has been removed.

No, because now they can get all worked up about McCain's birth certificate. I'll be expecting that thread any day now.

Several sources disagree and have demonstrated that the COLB on Obama's website is a fake. It isn't so much that his citizenship is in question. The question is why would he post a fake birth certificate? What is he hiding?

Nothing--I would think the fact check article should answer and lingering questions anyone would have.

I love the last line of the article!!

We suggest that those who choose to go down that path should first equip themselves with a high-quality tinfoil hat. The evidence is clear: Barack Obama was born in the U.S.A.
