I for one have learned that birthers are insipid and close minded.
They will stop AT NOTHING to disrupt the natural flow of politics in the US (whereby each team trades off chances to bat.)
I have learned they are relentless and in denial of their own bigotry.
I have learned to be viligent.
I have learned that the TRUTH can muster great scrutiny.
I have learned to be patient, change takes time.
I have learned you can't please everyone.
I have learned that many mask their racism under the guise of patriotism.
I have learned others still wear theit bigotry on their sleeve. (in the form of Anti-Obama Avatars and Screen names)

in doubtYou're saying that you don't believe a lot of people in this thread instantly put their faith in the fake document?

I've also learned that a lot of people are very imprudent, maybe even stupid, for so viciously defending the authenticity of some digital image on the internet.
Can anyone offer any insight into why they think all of these fake birth certificates are coming out? I mean in a sociological context.

You mean like the non-birthers have done to defend the authenticity of Obama's "official" internet BC?

You're comparing a digital image that was photographed at an angle and floated onto the internet with that of an official document produced by the state of Hawaii?

Wow. You really haven't read the thread have you? The Kenyan BC is not the original, it's supposedly a copy that was requested in 64 which just happens to be the year Obama's parents were divorced.

Another question. Does anyone here who happened to be arguing the case for the document feel at all duped? Deceived?
Would you spend as much time defending another image of another supposed document if one appeared tomorrow?
