Information explosion

While I never, for one moment, believed the Esquire satire about Joseph Farah recalling and pulping all the copies of Where’s the Birth Certificate, sometimes I find it hard to figure out whether some of the more far-out stories about Barack Obama are serious or not.

Case in point is Sept. 16 article titled: Photographic Evidence that Barack Obama is a Human/Reptilian Hybrid, Part 1. Some of the same concepts that explain how artifacts were introduced in Obama birth certificates by enlarging photos beyond the point of actual information in the image, are seen in this article by Ken Adachi at the “Educate Yourself” web site. After taking an original black and white image, and then adding color to it, Adachi says:

I can only speculate why these etheric images show up when examing [sic] enlargements of certain photos of human/reptilian hybrids such as Bush or Obama, but my guess is that their conduct carries etheric "baggage" which rides along in the aura of the victimizer.

Adachi’s article links to an article by Don Nicoloff [Adachi’s link to Nicoloff is bad] and promises “explosive” material to come from Nicoloff. Nicoloff says:

To fool the people into thinking that candidates for high public office are just ordinary Americans, their genealogy is obfuscated, the immense wealth backing them is not mentioned and the political power behind them is understated.

So once again, conspiracy theories about Barack Obama have taken on classical conspiracies of the New World Order and the lizard people: Nothing is as it seems –everything is being manipulated by THEM.

At this point, I have to decide whether to go down this road. Originally, despite this blog’s title, it was always focused on Obama eligibility arguments. I’ve been reading about the classic conspiracy theories for insight on the birthers, but the classic theories have absorbed Obama into their world view.

It sounds like I need to mow some grass.
