Kenya Birth Certificate -

Will This Birthers Pandemic Never Die?

Now we have a Kenyan Birth Certificate for Obama? This mornings Huffington Post provides photos and details on a Kenyan birth certificate that has now turned up. It has been submitted in the ongoing legal mess on whether Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States. This certificate has, of course, been immediately accepted as the long awaited holy grail missing link of the growing Birther movement. This, in spite of the fact that there a few "technical" details with the document;
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.

EF Lavender is a laundry detergent.

The same folks that expect us to believe that The State of Hawaii, Two Hawaiian Newspapers, the entire Obama family, a bunch of government agencies, the Democratic party, The President himself and legions of other co-conspirators worked in close unison to make it look like Obama was a citizen when, in fact he was actually born in Kenya, now expect us to accept this piece of dreck as a legitimate document?

Even Karl Rove has chimed in on twitter that believed the document is likely a forgery.

I am beginning to think there may be more behind this farce than a universal surge of patriotism to enforce the US Constitution. I wonder what it could be? I am sure I can live with the amateur attempts. I am not so sure I can accept the underlying motivations and the apparent growing numbers of converts.

And where is the conservative leadership voices in all this? Certainly not standing on any moral high ground. Or, at least I can't see them from down here in the pit.
