Obama birth certificate release won't kill "birther" movement
Posted by Brian Montopoli

... Already, well-known birther Orly Taitz, who has had lawsuits challenging the president's birth dismissed, is raising questions about the new document. She is suggesting that his race should be listed as "negro," not "African," and saying she maintains that the president isn't a "natural born citizen," as mandated by the Constitution, because both parents need to be American citizens. (That's not true.) Taitz also suggests the president is using a false social security number.

Another well-known birther, Phil Berg, also argued after the release that "the issue" is that Mr. Obama is not a natural born citizen. "Let's see his records coming back through immigration," he said.

The conservative news aggregator The Drudge Report is asking in its headlines, "is it real?" and "Composed of layers?" ...

2. Just wait until they claim the certificate is a fake.
Which explains why it took so long to surface.

4. They already are,
Look at the freeptards and others claiming that the PDF online has 'Artificts', No Sh!t, the only way it wouldn't have 'Artifacts' is if you were looking at the paper version, in your hands. Even then, if it were a photocopy, you'd still have 'Artifacts' visible. Nothing, not an eyewitness to the birth, video, vial of amniotic fluid, anything will shut them up, better to simply ignore and marginalize them, unfortunately, they begin to sway uninformed voters and other conspiracy nuts...One of those moments that the internet is more trouble than it's worth. ;)

3. Morons....
He released his short form birth certificate long ago.
Hawaii's wording on it's title is what throws the dummy birthers, it's too much a leap for them.
Certificate of Live Birth vs. Birth Certificate.
Bitching over that means they can/will bitch about ANYTHING and I wish there was a /ignore for actual people.

5. thinly veiled racism
that is what birtherism is. It is nothing more than thinly veiled racism and hatred that a black man is in office. (btw I am WHITE and that is how it comes across to me.)
