IT’S A FAKE
On Obamas birth certificate released by the White House, the listed place of birth is "Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital". This cannot be, because the hospital(s) in question in 1961 were called "KauiKeolani Children's Hospital" and "Kapi'olani Maternity Home", respectively. The name did not change to Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until 1978, when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name of the hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not yet been applied to it until 1978?
I looked it up. Here are two places where you can verify it.

WHAT DID THEY KNOW
AND HOW LONG DID THEY KNOW IT?
The fact that Osama bin Laden has been living in a fortress-like compound on the outskirts of a Pakistani city that is home to three army regiments and thousands of soldiers raises questions over whether Pakistani security forces knew the whereabouts of the world's most wanted man for years, possibly since 2005. This is no doubt is an enormous embarrassment for Pakistan's government.
Officials from the Pakistan President downwards have consistently maintained that the al-Qaida chief was not sheltering on Pakistani soil, suggesting instead that the Americans look for him elsewhere, particularly in Afghanistan. The Pakistani stance was part of a wider policy of denial, dating back to the 9/11 attacks, premised on the argument that Pakistan was not the source and springboard for Islamist-inspired terrorism but rather its principal victim.
Their head-in-the-sand position has led to intensifying friction with Washington in recent months, as the Obama administration struggles to bring an ordered end to its 10-year involvement in Afghanistan. But all that is as nothing compared with what may now follow. Official denial-ism has also hampered Pakistan's efforts to deal forcefully with its own violent Islamists, the so-called Pakistani Taliban, with which al-Qaida is said to have links. Tens of thousands of people have died in Pakistan as a result of terrorist activity since 9/11, more than all the European and American victims combined.
Given this context, and amid predictions by western commentators of possible terrorist retaliation against US and British targets, it is Pakistanis, along with Afghans, who are most likely to pay a blood price in terms of revenge attacks for the slaying of a man who is seen by some in the Muslim world as an iconic figure.
The Pakistani government was not informed beforehand of the American Special Forces' raid. The truth is, US officials would simply not have trusted their counterparts in Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan's powerful security and spy agency, with such sensitive information. That alone should tell us something.
Extremely pointed questions are now certain to be asked about how mush the IS, knew of the existence of the highly unusual, heavily fortified, expensively built compound in Abbottabad, 35 miles north of Islamabad – and of its high-value, low-profile tenant. If they did, why did they not investigate? If they did not, was it because they didn't want to know?
Here in the United States as in London and Delhi, relief that the world's most wanted man has been killed will be tempered, and may yet be overtaken by deep anger that he was apparently living not in some freezing mountain cave, as many assumed, but freely, undisturbed and untroubled by the authorities, in comfort in a desirable Pakistani neighborhood.

THIS GUY MAY BE ON TO SOMETHING
The Birth Certificate Trees Obscuring the Forest
Obama openly told us during his campaign that his father was never a US citizen, which sufficiently disqualifies him under the Article II “natural born citizen” requirement

Within minutes of the release of this second image, there began a barrage of internet offerings pointing out the visual and technical discrepancies in it. The issue that has probably gained the most traction is that the PDF file released by the White House was comprised of nine individual layers (while the one the AP released had been “flattened”). I have read the competing arguments on the matter, and both sides seem to have some compelling evidence to support their respective cases.
Next, there has been much scrutiny over the textual images it contains, as it appears some characters don’t match the general appearance of other characters within specific strings (e.g., the “1” at the end of the certificate number 61 10641). For those, the quest for the truth will likely continue for quite awhile.
Unfortunately, there have also been easily explained “problems,” which are actually the types of claims that make us look like lunatics. In that category would be the purported “issue” that, where the time is entered, the upper-case “M” is smaller than the “P,” and that a 1961 typewriter would not have been able to accomplish that. Of course, those making that claim must not be familiar with the universe of forms, for with many forms, data that is constant (such as the “P” in either AM or PM) is fixed within the design of the form so that whoever is entering the information needs to enter either the “A” or the “P” only. Obviously, the appearance of the font used to design the form will be vastly different from what is entered manually—especially when that entry is done by a typewriter.
I’m quite certain that elemental problems will continue to be found on the image as it is further scrutinized, and for that reason alone, I think we all need to have our heads examined!
Here’s my point: Look at the image! Let me repeat: LOOK AT THE IMAGE! I’m not speaking of what the image contains, but the image itself. There is no possible way that image is an actual scan of a decades-old document that was still in a bound volume (as suggested by the skewing on its left side). The image is simply too perfect to be what it is purported to be.
Think about it. Have you ever tried to scan a page from a book? First, how many times has such a scan been perfect, horizontally and vertically? I’m guessing the answer to that would be, “Never.” Next, where the page is bound (the spine side of the page), what kind of shading is always there?
Look at that shading on this document. Additionally, have you ever been able to scan a page from a book and have a bizarre matching border around the page, with the page itself sloping unnaturally within that border? That alone is proof that the image was computer-generated, for it is not as if Hawaii has a standardized way it provides scans of such images, as no other document has ever been released that looks like this one.
We have already spent far too much time and effort looking at the trees, when the forest is sitting there right under our noses. The White House is claiming that it received an exemption from Hawaiian officials (who have been nothing but forthright with us all along) to have the bound version of the long form birth certificate copied and released—something that, just the week before, Hawaii stated could not be done—not even for the messiah himself. And, obviously, they still have not done that. This image is unquestionably a computer-generated abstract of information either Hawaii or the White House has supplied. It is still not a scan, copy, or photograph of any paper document that was created in 1961, or even in 2011, for that matter.
While it would completely confound me for anyone to state honestly that they believe this is, as the White House claims, a scan of Barack Obama’s long form birth certificate, I suppose I have witnessed enough of his faithful followers’ illogical and bizarre blanket beliefs to expect at least a little of that in response to this.
So, I have a challenge for you—any of you: scan a page out of a book or some other bound volume, and show me that it is possible to arrive at something that looks even remotely similar to the latest blatant lie the White House has released. I’ll gladly post it everywhere I can to prove myself wrong.
Yes, this forest vs. the trees issue has continually kept us scrambling and looking like the idiots those in the media repeatedly and arrogantly report us to be. Obama openly told us during his campaign that his father was never a US citizen, which sufficiently disqualifies him under the Article II “natural born citizen” requirement (according to the historic definition of the term—“born on US soil to citizen parents”), and we brought out the flashlights and decoder rings trying to find his birth certificate—just as he wanted us to do.
We MUST be nuts.
