Ugh. My first thought when I read about this movie was that the people involved in it are going to be hounded, harassed, and defamed by birfer lunatics.
That was beautifully done. I hope it gets a wide audience. I have the urge to move to Hawaii now though.
That’s only the promo. She has a 2 hour film and is working on post-production. That was fun to watch!!
Oh, excellent! I am excited to see the full movie then. It was indeed fun to watch and also very moving. I didn’t intend to watch the entire Vimeo video at first but then could not bring myself to stop it once I had started.
I dunno. I see the birthers as vampires. Very few have found a nice perfectly dark crypt and dawn is coming.
I have only had time to watch about half of the promo but it looks like it is very well done.
But but but, I thought no one remembered him from those years. Did birthers get some facts wrong?
Beautiful and informative! Thanks for sharing this, Doc.

Thanks for the tip, by the way.
I thoroughly enjoyed that! Learned a lot as well, although I live in Hawaii . The closing interview about hoʻoponopono was particularly moving, and I hope it helps others to understand why our President is able to remain calm and continue to patiently address the issues, listen to what others have to say, and stay focused on the outcome.
I’ll have to wait until it is CC’d to watch the entire film, but it looks interesting. I didn’t know that President Obama grew up as a Unitarian.
Looking forward to seeing it.
It’s a nice “touch” putting this website on green security paper. I believe “Birthers” question the validity of Obama’s birth CERTIFICATE – Not where he was born. You see, the birth certificate Obama put on the White House web site is a fraud and THAT raises questions, such as; WHY would he provide a fraudulent birth certificate if he had a valid one? Oh well, I guess that question will get answered when we find out why he has a Social Security number that wasn’t issued to him, and why Obama fails verification by e-Verify.
The integrity of the White House has been compromised and our country is under siege.
The enemy is in our midst!
Just a “right-wing nut job” ranting, I suppose….. Just watch the movie and ignore all that other stuff. “Nothing to see here – Move along.”
You must be new to the game. The birther movement started with unsourced rumors that Obama was born in Kenya. That went on for 3 years before the White House released Obama’s birth certificate, which has been verified by the State of Hawaii.
You can call the certificate a fraud, and by definition that makes you a birther; it does not, however, make you right.
What’s the source of your information?
Indeed, it was inspired move, much better than the old grey. I remember the day Doc rolled it out. As fondly as the day Bob Barker first appeared on TPiR with white hair.
Majority Will:
may i add “What’s the source of your [false] information?
Really? I’ve seen a lot of theories about Obama’s supposed birth in Kenya. You sound like you believe you are an expert but don’t know much about the back story. Perhaps you should do some research. A few months ago (October), posters on this site were all discussing a faked video of a baby born in what was portrayed as a Kenyan hospital. We were able to debunk the video though by hunting down an image from the calendar placed on the wall in the video. The artwork on the calendar was only created a couple of years ago.
http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/2012/10/interview-with-peter-rehnquist/
“Dr.” Conspiracy, Majority Will, and all other “blind” Obama-ists;
The source of my FACTUAL information are the following; 1) eComp Consultants of Tampa Florida, (Independent court-accepted experts on authenticating digital documents and technology) eComp has confirmed the document was “altered”; 2) Mara Zebest’s report explaining the amateurish cutting and pasting of the information entered on the certificate, and 3) the Joe Arpaio report which uncovered procedural inaccuracies and errors on the birth certificate and more; 4) See also the Orly Taitz evidence currently being reviewed by the Supreme Court of the United States, showing that Obama fails an e-Verify check and charges the Usurper-in-Chief with submitting his 2009 tax returns with a Social Security number that was not issued to him and also includes the information confirmed by the above named reports.
Try opening the birth certificate document from the White House website with Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator. It opens into multiple layers; Have YOU ever scanned a document and gotten more than ONE layer? If YOU were to scan a document, would you do so with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology as the WH document was? Let’s not even mention how much tax dollars were spent to seal all the records with his historical information contained in it; Student loan applications, passport information, his resignation of his Law License, and ….. all baloney, right? “These are not the droids you are looking for – Move along.”
I would go on, but suffice to say, the certificate provided by Obama is; a forgery; a complete falsehood; a computer generated image; a lie; and not at all a factual copy of any original document created in 1961.
so when are you filing your case? sounds like it’ll be a slam dunk.
If his Social Security Number wasn’t issued to him, who was it issued to? Why haven’t the birthers “investigators” been able to identify the person to whom the number was issued? If I knew your SSN it would take me five minutes or less to identify you.
As for e-Verify, the obvious explanation is that Obama most likely was issued a new Social Security Number after his original SSN was plastered all over the Internet by birthers. However, we know that the original SSN was indeed issued in 1976 or 1977. You can go to this site and verify that for yourself:
http://www.ssnvalidator.com/
You had better get cracking. All of this stuff has already been debunked. There are numerous articles on each of these theories. You’ll have to hunt them down.
And, umm, your portrayal as someone being in control of this debate is cute, but it’s really not very well informed. Bravado doesn’t work if you don’t have the proof. Do yourself a favor and learn something. There are many articles regarding your concerns, research them.
Wait, don’t leave us hanging! You didn’t get to the obvious reason why the State of Hawaii has repeatedly confirmed all the particulars of Obama’s birth, even though he’s all usurp-ey and stuff! Even a child of 12 knows that reason, which is… is…
[a shot rings out]
Roger Gangitano: “I would go on……”
please do – i would like to review the (debunked) conspiracies from the last 4+ years once again
“Let’s not even mention how much tax dollars were spent to seal all the records with his historical information contained in it; Student loan applications, passport information, his resignation of his Law License, and ….. all baloney, right?”
Actually, yes, all baloney. Student loan applications are not public records, but the evidence that Mr. Obama took out student loans not available to foreign citizens includes the convictions of eight or nine Iowans for taking illegal peeks at those records. Passport info, not a public record either, so it would not have been available to the general public even if Mr. Obama elected to be represented by an empty chair every time. His law license inactivation is a public record, which if you will look at it shows nothing untoward. about it. He and Mrs. Obama, voluntarily inactivated their licenses because they were not going to be practicing law for at least a while.
Show your intellectual honesty, Mr. Gangitano, and look up the Obamas’ law license records, and tell us what you find.
The meme that Obama “sealed” his records has been thoroughly debunked, and yet one of Sheriff Arpaio’s Cold Case minions recently repeated, in an affidavit, the lie that Mr. Obama in his first executive order sealed his personal records. Of course, any intellectually honest investigator would look at that actual executive order, and would find that it had nothing to do with personal records but with records created by official acts of a presidential administration. And by comparing it to President Reagan’s final executive order, the intellectually honest investigator would find that the Obama order was patterned on the Reagan order, following its organzation from beginning to end, copying more than 95 percent of its language word for word.
Read both, Mr. Gangitano, and come back and tell us what you found. If you can’t do that, it’s a safe assumption that you’re just a troll here to raise hell. In that case, I for one would just as soon you go away.
eComp Consultants, Tampa, FL = Mr. Ivan Zatkovich
(excerpt) Ivan Zatkovich
Unruh spends most of his article treating the report of Ivan Zatkovich of eComp Consultants. Mr. Zatkovich has an impressive career, having given forensic testimony in federal civil and criminal trials. While most of his activity seems to be related to patents and telephony, at least one case involved images. Mr. Zatkovich is not a crank by any means. What seemed odd to me then is why a link to his actual report was not published along with Unruh’s article.
To clear the matter up, I emailed Mr. Zatkovich with my questions, and he was kind enough to reply, and to include the missing report provided to WorldNetDaily. Mr. Zatkovich said:
Here is a copy of the full Obama birth certificate report which I submitted to World Net Daily. I believe it is fairly objective, and don’t believe WND’s excerpt was quite accurate.
Ivan
I must agree. WND readers say that every expert who has looked at the long form concludes that it’s a fake/fraud/forgery. Mr. Zatkovich, while maintaining that the separation of the document into layers was manual, concludes:
All of the modifications to the PDF document that can be identified are consistent with someone enhancing the legibility of the document.
The Zatkovich report directly contradicts the report of WND crank expert Douglas Vogt, by saying: “A certificate was produced by the State of Hawaii and copied onto green safety paper, as per normal procedure.” Vogt claims the State of Hawaii produced no paper document at all. He also contradicts WND crank expert Mara Zebest when he reports that the layers were not due to Adobe Illustrator.
http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/2011/07/wnd-document-expert-says-not-quite-accurate/
Too many birther bigots think WND is actually a news source.
What, specifically, are you implying about student loans? No one has ever seen President Obama’s student loan applications, so there is nothing to say about them. Same with every other president. Same with anyone else who went to college. I am unaware of anyone’s student loan applications being made publicly available for all to see.
Passport “information”? Is this the debunked “illegal to travel to Pakistan on a US passport” thing? Because there was never a rule saying that you couldn’t go to Pakistan. Obama traveled to Pakistan on a US passport, as there is no proof he’s every had any other, and no reason for him to have had any other. There was a warning about going when he went, but not a law preventing it.
Here is a list of all of the current State Department travel warnings. Nowhere does it say that you can’t go to any of these places. http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/tw/tw_1764.html
So, what passport “information” do you mean?
“His resignation of his Law License”. Here’s the problem you have here: you have people like Eugene Volokh who say you’re absolutely wrong on the law license thing – that the Obamas resigned from the Bar themselves for ordinary and not for disciplinary reasons. Volokh is an American law professor at the UCLA School of Law, a former US Supreme Court Clerk for Sandra Day O’Connor; a noted expert on the First & Second Amendments (he was cited by Supreme Court Justice Scalia for the majority in DC vs Heller), and is a well-known conservative.
Volokh is not just some guy on the street. He’s knowledgeable about the law, and he’s knowledgeable about this specific practice, having allowed his own license to lapse in 2001. He says that you are wrong and he is more credentialed than pretty much anyone else on the subject. So please, tell us all about the resignation of his law license.

The quality of the birf is not improving over time. I sense an inability to learn (or an infatuation with the copy-paste). Darn that denial, it’s so mentally enfeebling, intellectually crippling!
1) No, Photoshop will not open that PDF, or any PDF, as a layered file, no matter what objects the PDF contains. Photoshop will ask the user to select a page, and render that page as a flattened, pixelated image, at the specified color-depth and resolution.
2) Illustrator will open any PDF as a collection of objects, paths, placed images, text strings, etc. Even a PDF that contains nothing but an image will have at least 2 objects: a clipping path and the image.
3) Yes. What of it?
4) If I need to edit the text for whatever reason, I would use OCR. Back in my publishing days, hard copy manuscripts would be OCR’d and the text flowed into layouts in QuarkXpress.
But you don’t literally mean OCR, you mean any method that recognizes and highlights text. Again, the answer is yes, if I was compressing the file but had the need to preserve the legibility of fine print.
Thank you, come again.
Ignorance is Bliss. Remain as blissful as you like.
In other words, you’re running back to wherever it is that no one challenges your fake, incomplete, and false information.
Got it.
Quoth the birther.
Sounds like Roger just came from a Tuesday evening Tea Party and was all fired up to tell all those uppity folks at Doc C’s what’s what.
You win!!! You win!!! You win!!!
Really? What case filed by Orly Taitz is “currently being reviewed” by the Supreme Court? You seem to be out of the loop. I suggest that you pay a visit to the Supreme Court website and run a docket search. You will find five cases filed by Orly. All five end with the word “denied.”
http://www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docket.aspx
Roger, really, you need to get with the Birfoon program/pogrom, sadly you are about two generations of FAIL behind.
The current meme is now that all Birfers KNOW and where all TAUGHT that only individuals (inevitably men), born in the USA (and white) to two US citizen parents are capable of being (the Republican) President .
To bolster this you have to misquote (and outright lie) about the Constitution, the FF’s, the Supreme Court and its cases. In some cases you have to then right/write a 1700 page “book” where the driving thesis is that you, as the author, are the only person in the world who KNOWS the secret and never revealed actual definition of NBC which was devided in a never revorded private meeting with two people circa 1779.
You also have to talk knowledgeably about an obscure Swiss/German philosopher/diplomat anfd cherry pick words to substantiate your erudite blather.
Once you have mastered these eldritch skills do feel free to pop back and be soundly ridiculed
You should read and understand their actual report instead of parroting the wrong/misleading conclusions made by WND (who are not referring to the Zatkovich report anymore since it thoroughly debunked their “forgery” claims):
http://www.ecompconsultants.com/news/Obama-report.pdf
Let me quote:
“The only two plausible explanations for this pattern of layers is:
1. Someone was changing the content of both the text and the stamps.
2. Someone was systematically enhancing the black text layers for legibility, and then enhancing the stamp overlays separately for legibility.
See, again no “proof of forgery”.
“Another anomaly in the PDF document is the ‘white halo’ around the majority of text in the document.This particular type of white halo indicates, and how it appears in the layers indicate, again, that someone was attempting to enhance the clarity of the text in the document.”
So, no “forgery” but “enhance the clarity of the text”. *duh*
And more:
“It has been suggested that these “suspicious white borders” indicate that items were pasted into the image. The pasting of content itself does not necessarily create a white border.A more likely reason for this Halo effect is that the text was enhanced.
It is a common practice when enhancing a document with text on a dark background to set off black text with a white border to increase the contrast.If we look at the base layer, that appears to be exactly what has occurred.”
And the conclusion:
“All of the modifications to the PDF document that can be identified are consistent with someone enhancing the legibility of the document.It is possible that in addition to enhancing the legibility of the document that the content of the document was also changed.There is no specific evidence of how or why that content would have been changed”
So, as usual for a birther, you refer to something as evidence for your claims when it in fact *refutes* your claims.
Claiming that “the document’s legibility was enhanced” is properly summed up as “the document was altered” when in fact the purpose of using the latter expression is to insinuate the contents were falsified is pure intellectual dishonesty, or “everyday claims” in Birtherstan.
People say that, but are you blissful?
Yes, it’s baloney all the way down. You might consider opening a deli.

You, Roger, are a victim of Laxative Effect by Pressing.
To wit: The Political Lynching of Obama Inc. propagandists knew what you were full of: all the intellectual dishonesty, all the xenophobia, all the paranoia, all the disingenuousness and gullibility, all the hate blocking you up, constipating your mind… and then they started with the Pressing.
They laid you down, put a wooden door over you, and started piling on the stones. The non-existent travel ban to Pakistan. The Kenyan Birth hogwash. The Hidden Records nonsense, the Foreign Student fiction, the Lost Law License garbage, the Dual-Citizen Misconceptions, the Document Forgery swill… the lies, more lies, more lies, and more lies, heavier and heavier… they kept piling on more weight until you just had to let loose your pent-up torrent of worthless sludge made of conceptual excrement and emotional bile, upon these pages.
They knew the Laxative Effect by Pressing never fails with your kind. You were full to bursting with just what they needed you to spew.
Congratulations. You are the “right kind” of American. They kind they needed to denigrate and damage the President of the United States, and with him, America.
You must be so proud.
Thomas Brown:
revelation, roger thinks he’s a “patriot” when the patriotic thing to do is to tell the truth
erick erickson/redstate has an article up today about conservative media
Conservatives are trying so hard to highlight controversies, no matter how trivial, we have forgotten the basics of reporting: W5 + H as I learned in grade school, also known as who, what, where, when, why, and how.
The “Obamaphone” is a great example of this. Conservatives laughed out loud at the video of the lady saying Barack Obama had given her a phone. Conservatives used it as an example of all that was wrong with the expansion of the welfare state under Barack Obama. What many conservatives missed was that the program was a pre-existing program. In fact, the “Obamaphone” idea goes back to the Reagan Administration, but the present program was implemented in 2008 when George W. Bush was President. Government funds are not even used directly.
Focus on the Obamaphone by conservatives missed a number of key points and, in not covering the basic facts, sent conservative activists down rabbit holes.

Rickey:
thanks for the link – NONE of what he predicted occurred – for accuracy, he should have looked at “romneycare” – it’s been in effect for 6 years, premiums have gone down, employers have ADDED employees and people are happy with it
Another cesspool of rage filled, delusional, fear mongering, ODS afflicted Oath Keepers?
Please quote the entire passage. Also, what book and who was the author? What was the author warning about?
In case you have not noticed, Obama was re-elected and will be our president the next four years. Since you feel he has done this by fraud, here is what you should do:
Put all of your taxes in escrow. Then notify the IRS, you will release the money once Obama has been removed from office.
It is legal, because you are not refusing to pay your taxes. You are only refusing to participate in a fraud.
This is the bliss that I like. Even tho I know I really shouldn’t. Can you provide?
I commend Roger’s efforts to promote teabagging as mainstream Republicanism. And I”m looking forward to President Hillary Clinton in 2017. Or Maybe President Warren. Or President Franken.
Keep on teabaggin’ Roger!
All worthy teabagger nightmares, which I heartily endorse. President Russ Feingold, also. Too.
You must be proud indeed. Now I’m not going to that image out of my mind all day. You should do a video of it and try to sell it to MONA (Museum of Old and New Art) in Tasmania. They seem to have a specialty in morbid themes.
Despite the morbid theme, which is really only a part of the collecftion, I thoroughly recommend MONA. It has only been in existence for a couple of years and is already one of the worlds great art galleries in a gorgeous building carved out of a sandstone cliff.
Ooh, Ooh.. I know!..
