This morning’s White House release of President Barack Obama’s long form birth certificate will, of course, do little to derail the “birther” movement, which will now analyze the document with the kind of verve previously directed toward those Texas Air National Guard memos faxed to CBS from that Kinko’s in Abilene.
So here’s a few nutty points about the birth certificate sure to be seized upon by the nonbelievers:
• If the original document was in a bound volume (as reflected by the curvature of the left hand side of the certificate), how can the green patterned background of the document's safety paper be so seamless?
• Why, if Obama was born on August 4, 1961, was the “Date Accepted by Local Reg.” four days later on August 8, 1961?
• What is the significance of the smudges in the box containing the name of the reported attendant?
• In the “This Birth” box there are two mysterious Xs above “Twin” and “Triplet.” Is there a sibling or two unaccounted for?
• What is the significance of the mysterious numbers, seen vertically, on the document’s right side?
• Finally, the “Signature of Local Registrar” in box 21 may be a desperate attempt at establishing the document’s Hawaiian authenticity. Note to forgers: it is spelled “Ukulele.”
FAKE. The term "African" for race was not used on official Government Docs until 1997. It should be Ne gro or Colored. Apparently the Smoking Gun censors the word N E G R O

In those days, "African" was not used as a race.....It is a nationality....Also, I don't see the Dr's name listed, and the witness's name is smudged....To me, this doesn't look any better than that "short" green form he has had up on the internet for three years....I'm sure people will believe it, though....Good job, Donald...

While I assume the article is tongue-in-cheek: It should be pretty obvious that the green pattern is from the paper that the digital copy was printed on. There are versions that can be obtained without the green pattern, but the green pattern shows that the hospital certified the printout of the digital copy and used their special paper.

This seems very suspicious to me. People still need to question the authenticity of this. Don't believe what Obama wants to spoon feed you to believe. The real question here is why is there no religous affiliation on the document? There is on any other birth certificate. The answer is because Obama's worst fear is that the American people know that he is in fact a Muslim. I don't trust this man at all. He is destroying this country and he is full of lies.

I see that the 4th of August 1961 is a Friday which would make the time of birth of 7.24pm a bit late to expect the entry in the Register to be made that day. It is probable, like most places, that the entry is done at a time to be agreed for the Registrar AND the father to be present, this would explain why it was signed on the 8th of August 1961 (the following Tuesday). I don't see anything untoward in this whatsoever.
