Obama Birthers Latch On To Forgery

California attorney Orly Taitz, who has filed a number of lawsuits demanding proof of Barack Obama’s eligibility to serve as president, has released a copy of what purports to be a Kenyan certification of birth and has filed a new motion in U.S. District Court for its authentication. Oddly, the same people who are so skeptical of Obama’s Hawaii birth certificate are willing to accept this new document despite many flaws, documented by the Washington Independent’s Dave Weigel and Markos Moulitsas.

Here are just some of the flaws:

Kenya was a Dominion the date this certificate was allegedly issued and would not become a republic for 8 months.

Mombasa belonged to Zanzibar when Obama was born, not Kenya.

Obama’s father’s village would be nearer to Nairobi, not Mombasa.

The number 47O44— 47 is Obama’s age when he became president, followed by the letter O (not a zero) followed by 44—he is the 44th president.

A few days ago, Hawaii recertified, meaning it already happened once, Obama’s birth certificate. Now? More republicans are joning the party’s fringe in questioning President Obama’s legitimacy.

From HuffPost:

Of course, Obama has produced his birth certificate. Reporters have seen and touched the document itself and confirmed its veracity. State officials in Hawaii checked as recently as this week and concluded once again that the president’s birth certificate is real. When Stark pointed out that Chris Matthews had held a copy of the document up on MSNBC, Blunt responded, “Take it up with Chris Matthews.”
