Arizona Sheriff determines Obama's Birth Certificate is fake

Members of an Arizona sheriff's volunteer posse claim that President Barack Obama's birth certificate is definitely fraudulent.

Members of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's posse said in March that there was probable cause that Obama's long-form birth certificate released by the White House in April 2011 was a computer-generated forgery.

Now, Arpaio says investigators are positive it's fraudulent.

Mike Zullo, the posse's chief investigator, said numeric codes on certain parts of the birth certificate indicate that those parts weren't filled out, yet those sections asking for the race of Obama's father and his field of work or study were completed.

Zullo said investigators previously didn't know the meaning of codes but they were explained by a 95-year-old former state worker who signed the president's birth certificate. Zullo said a writer who published a book about Obama's birth certificate and was aiding investigators let them listen in on an interview he conducted of the former state worker.

Well that's that then. Sounds irrefutable to me. Now what?

Well, if a sheriff's volunteer posse has determined it, I don't see how it can be contested.

I'm convinced Arpaio suffers from dementia. I don't think he's fit for office.

I wonder if he'll win again in November or if his white supremest views have finally made people think before they vote.

And I linked to the most upbeat source I could find- Fox News. I love how even they sort of admit he's crazy with the whole explanation that they didn't understand how the "Proof" works but a 95 year old clerk assured them it's proof.

What about all the money Obama has in foreign bank accounts?!!!

Wrong guy? Oh, okay.

I'm still waiting for an explanation of the birth announcement in the Honolulu newspaper the following day. How did Obama's parents know in the mid-1960s, when a black president seemed much less likely than an invasion from outer space, that their son would need to prove he was born in the United States?

I actually know a few people working on the campaign with Arpaio's opponent. Part of the major thing is voter registration. It's Arizona, many people there have moved from another state or immigrated. Add in the position of Sherriff not reallly being a spotlight position with a population too apathetic to vote, much less registered to do so and this is the result.

But at least now people realize how toxic he is and important the position is.

I am unfortunate to live in Arizona. Words cannot describe how much I absolutely detest this man. The fact that he used our tax dollars for this "investigation" is infuriating. Even some of my conservative friends can't stand this guy. He is truly terrible. I would be shocked if he was re-elected, but then again this is pretty much an all red state with not the smartest people.

The birth announcement can be explained easily: Obama owns a time machine.

^ Oh trust me, the crazy conservative folks out here in Arizona will believe ANYTHING when it comes to making Obama look bad... even Obama owning a time machine. It is like being surrounded by idiots out here.

Obama was retroactively born. Simple explanation.

I had a great argument one time with a birther who insisted that if Obama HAD been born in Hawaii, the doctor or a nurse who had been in the delivery room would have come forward to brag about being at the birth. And I said "Do you really think anyone who was present at the birth of a mixed race illegitimate baby in Hawaii in 1962 said to themselves 'I better remember this- he might grow up to be president?'"
