See how the birthers got "punk'd"!
Edited on Thu Aug-06-09 02:02 PM by sledgehammer
It’s looking more and more like the forged “Kenyan birth certificate” released by Orly Taitz on Sunday was a prank by a supporter of President Obama. Politijab points to an anonymous blogger at FearlessBlogging, who has uploaded four photos of the original forgery and a mocking declaration:

Fine cotton business paper: $11

Inkjet printer: $35

1940 Royal Model KMM manual typewriter: $10

2 Shilling coin: $1

Pilot Varsity fountain pen: $3

Punkin’ the Birthers: Priceless

ETA: Changed the title to sound more intelligent! :)

1. I must ask
At long last, sir, does the word "duh" have no meaning to you at all? :)

4. Nothing posted anonymously on the internet is 'evidence'
Could be some just taking credit for it :shrug:, or surmising how it might have been done. I read somewhere (again, so?) that the font used was developed later than 1964, which if true would make the 1940's typewriter false.

The next big internet scandal: Who has the real story of how the fake Kenyan birth certificate was faked?

8. Actually, the paper folds are kinda off - totally different directions.
The bedcover/tablecloth looks the same though.

Just adds to the entertainment!

7. What do you call it when you scam the scammers? A sting operation.
If so, ca-ching. One for the home team. If not, only a really stupid person would have tried to forge a President's birth certificate. Really stupid. Right, Orly?
