The Birthers Got "Punk'd" With Fake Certificate

[one...two...tree 2,762]

It now looks like the forged "Kenyan" Obama birth certificate that was briefly promoted by the Birthers -- actually an altered copy of a decades-old South Australian birth certificate -- was deliberately designed as a prank on the Birther movement itself, Dave Weigel reports.

An anonymous person has put up an Internet posting showing photos of the document, against a bedsheet background that matches the photo promoted by Orly Taitz. One of the photos shows a crumpled up certificate with the following message written on it: "YOU'VE BEEN PUNK'D!"

The forgery was apparently created using fine cotton business paper, an inkjet printer, an old manual typewriter, and a fountain pen. The supposed government seal is actually an imprint made with an old two-shilling coin. (Pre-decimal British money can easily be purchased from souvenir vendors or on eBay.)

As the anonymous poster says: "Punkin' the Birthers: Priceless."

This is as bad as CBS getting punked on the phony documents about Bush's military service. A lot of people who still believe it.

I remember that, the dems were so happy there for a little bit.

I realize that the majority of people are joking here.

But, for those that doubt; don't even for a minute, be foolish enough to believe that the USG would allow a non-USG citizen to become President.

The USG machine is bigger than the President, especially if there is reason for concern. This ridiculous farce has gone on long enough......Find something new to b!tch about....
