Remember a couple of months ago when the wingnuts were all speculating that Obama's birth certificate he released was a fake? They took to their special "Photoshop forensics" to try and prove Obama was lying. Well the tinfoil hat brigade has been foiled again. Factcheck.org has actually seen the birth certificate and can verify it's authenticity (complete with high resolution photos).
Of course now the wingnuts are all trying to say they never bought into the conspiracy theory, even though they did.
But lets look at the people who really ran with this story. Larry Johnson's blog devoted a lot of time to this story, and went as far as accusing Markos of tampering with the birth certificate. None of them have actually seen the birth certificate in it's 3D form, complete with raised seal, but isn't is telling that a site ran by a former CIA agent got something like this so wrong?

"All the Wingnuts?
Wow! That includes ME??? Tsk, tsk, jamie.
I haven't even heard anybody even bring up the subject of Obama's birth certificate authenticity.
As far as the proof that it was real? I'd guess that it probably was - as professional politicians (liberal and conservative) rarely make mistakes THAT obvious.
The real story is that some people's actions and feelings can be controlled so easily by a blogger's typed words. It worked - as you started a thread about it........... :-) and some people will read this and think that it's a widely held opinion.......... (far from it).
