IssuesLiddy, Pruden repeat debunked claim that Obama's birth certificate is fake
Citing a July 20 Israel Insider article which claimed
that Sen. Barack Obama's birth certificate is a "crudely forged
fake," G. Gordon Liddy falsely asserted on the August 26 edition of his
nationally syndicated radio show: "[W]e still don't have a birth
certificate for Obama. There are claims that he was actually born in Kenya."
Liddy also claimed, "If it's so important an issue that the
campaign, if they had a real birth certificate from Hawaii, the campaign would
put it out, not rely on a phony thing Photoshopped by Daily Kos," and
stated, "And as Wes Pruden, in today's edition of The Washington
Times, he's the editor emeritus, puts it, you know, this is a
story that could have long legs." Indeed, in his August 26 column, Pruden wrote
that a "summer-long controversy continues about when and where the
senator was actually born, and whether the circumstances of his birth could
cloud his eligibility to serve" and falsely asserted that "[t]he
Obama campaign has been reluctant to produce a birth certificate." In
fact, contrary to Liddy and Pruden's false assertions, the Obama
campaign, in addition to posting a copy of the birth certificate on the
campaign website, reportedly provided the original to FactCheck.org, whose staff said in an August 21 article that they "have now seen, touched,
examined and photographed the original birth certificate," and concluded
that the document does, in fact, exist, and that it "meets all of the
requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship."
As Media
Matters documented, even the
right-wing website WorldNetDaily, which had cited the Israel Insider's report that analysts determined that Obama's birth certificate is fake, has since reported in
an August 23 article that
"FactChecker.org [sic] says it obtained Obama's actual birth certificate
and that the document was indeed real," and added, "A separate WND
investigation into Obama's birth certificate utilizing forgery experts also
found the document to be authentic."
From the August 26 edition of Radio America's
The G. Gordon Liddy Show:
LIDDY:
All right, ladies and gentlemen. There's a story in a publication called
Israel Insider, and it addresses the birthplace, if you will, of Barack Obama.
Now, what you have probably seen, on the Internet and places like that, is a
certificate of "live birth," quote-unquote, issued by the state of
Hawaii, giving, you know, the birth date of Barack Hussein Obama Jr. And Senior
is listed as the father, and Ann Dunham as the mother, et cetera.
But the
first thing you have to remember is this was released by the Daily Kos, which
is a radical left blog. And the second thing is that it is not a birth
certificate. A birth certificate, such as you and I and just about everybody
else, has, is a certificate at the hospital where you're born, and
it's issued, and it says, you know, who the father is and the mother is
and so on. This is a document that is issued later by the state, claiming that
an individual was born at such-and-such a place at such-and-such a time. And
this has been -- the one that was released by Daily Kos shows clear signs of tampering,
such as a mismatch in the RGB and error levels, visible indications of the
previous location of the erased security border, easily detectable patterns of
repeating flaws around the new security border, EXIF data that says the image
was last saved with Photoshop CS3 for Macintosh, and finally a technician from
Hawaii who confirms it just looks wrong. So, we still don't have a birth
certificate for Obama.
There
are claims that he was actually born in Kenya. I have no way of proving
that or disproving that, but it would seem to me that it being so important --
I mean, because if he was born in Kenya and not in Hawaii, then he's not
eligible to become president. If it's so important an issue that the
campaign, if they had a real birth certificate from Hawaii, the campaign would
put it out, not rely on a phony thing Photoshopped by Daily Kos, you know. Why?
You have to ask yourself that question: why? And as Wes Pruden, in
today's edition of The Washington Times, he's the editor
emeritus, puts it, you know, this is a story that could have long legs.
It's dynamite if it's true. And I don't know how many people
are or are not working on the story, but as I said, it is
dynamite.
From Pruden's August 26 Washington Times column:
The
Democrats here are more than a little concerned about their man's slide in the
polls; Gallup on Monday said the race is tied at 45-all. Even John McCain's
faulty memory about his various houses and condos, so rich for the late-night
comics, has not blunted what one senior Democrat calls "McCain's run of 12
unanswered points over the past fortnight."
The
news may get worse. There's the story now afloat that an Obama half brother is
living in grim poverty in Kenya,
scratching out a bare living on a dollar a month while the senator lives in
luxury on $5 million a year. Far worse, a summerlong controversy continues
about when and where the senator was actually born, and whether the
circumstances of his birth could cloud his eligibility to serve.
The
Obama campaign has been reluctant to produce a birth certificate. This could be
a story with legs, swift long legs to rival those of a Kenyan sprinter. The Clintons are surely trying
to help sort this out.

On the July 14 broadcast of his
nationally syndicated radio show, G.
Gordon Liddy said of the image of Sen. Barack
Obama and his wife, Michelle, on the July 21 cover of The New Yorker: "It's got
Obama in his Muslim dress with a turban, and he's there with his wife. His
wife has a 'mad at the world' afro, circa 1968, she -- she's
got bandoliers and an assault weapon, and there in their fireplace is burning the
American flag. The New Yorker
finally got it right."
The New Yorker said in a press release that its
cover "satirizes the use of scare tactics and misinformation in the
Presidential election to derail Barack Obama's campaign."
From the July 14 broadcast of Radio America's
The G. Gordon Liddy Show:
CALLER:
Well, Mr. Liddy, if you watched the congressional hearings with the oil
companies, Congress and the Senate didn't even understand supply and
demand and how prices are affected by supply and demand. So, can we expect them
to understand the simple stuff?
LIDDY:
No, you -- you really can't. I mean, they -- the -- what I think was the
height of irony was when they were yelling at the oil company guys because they
made eight cents on the dollar, and when you pay a dollar at the pump, the
taxes are like 48 cents. And they're the ones that are getting most of
the money -- it's the government. They get far, vastly more than the oil
companies --
CALLER:
Mr. Liddy, I think America's
going to have a problem with Mr. Obama, who wants to tell us to quit driving my
diesel so that he can fly jets and have a limo. I really resent someone doing
that. I want to drive my diesel, but I don't want to pay $5 a gallon.
LIDDY: Yeah, I don't suppose you've, by any
chance, have seen the cover of the latest issue of The New Yorker magazine, which is, you know, a huge thing.
It's got Obama in his Muslim dress with a turban, and he's there
with his wife. His wife has a "mad at the world" afro, circa 1968,
she -- she's got bandoliers and an assault weapon, and there in their
fireplace is burning the American flag. The
New Yorker finally got it right.
CALLER:
But just remember -- just remember he has announced now that he is pro-gun.
I'm waiting for him to announce he's pro-life.
LIDDY:
Oh, I don't know that he'll ever do that. Oh my, now, but you never
know. He's changed his mind on virtually everything else in the world.
But I still think that, you know, at heart, he just wants to take away --
he's Robin Hood. He wants to take away from the rich and give to the
poor. The problem is he thinks anybody, you know, who makes the equivalent of
the pay of a good plumber or electrician is rich. I got news for him. Thank you
very much, Charles. We appreciate your listening and calling.

On the July 9 broadcast of his nationally
syndicated radio show, while discussing a July 8 speech in which Sen. Barack
Obama discussed the
importance of learning a second language, G. Gordon Liddy claimed that Obama "wants you to be
sure your child can speak fluent illegal alien." He added: "Sadly,
with every legal and cultural step we take to make our life more immediately
convenient for non-English-speaking illegal aliens, we merely feed the beast." Liddy
later stated: " 'Round here, let's see, I speak some French,
some German as well as English. Franklin [Liddy's producer] speaks fluent
French, fluent Italian, as well as English. But none of us here, so far as I
know, speak illegal alien."
As Media
Matters for America has noted, Liddy has previously said of undocumented workers from Mexico:
"[T]hey want to speak Spanish, you know, and other varieties of illegal
alien."
From the July 9 broadcast of Radio America's
The G. Gordon Liddy Show:
LIDDY:
And that, of course is the latest pander from Barack Obama. He says that
Europeans coming over here can speak German and French. Well, yes, if
you're from Germany
I would suspect you would speak German. And you -- you would speak French and
they do study English because English is the universal language. All aircraft
communications and all the rest all over the world are in English. No,
they're not in Russian or Chinese, or anything else. But think about
that; he wants you to be sure your child can speak fluent illegal alien. Sadly,
with every legal and cultural step we take to make our life more immediately
convenient for non-English-speaking illegal aliens, we merely feed the beast.
[...]
LIDDY:
You've just heard Barack Obama insisting that we all teach our children
Spanish. Well, not mine, no way. 'Round here, let's see, I speak
some French, some German as well as English. Franklin speaks fluent French, fluent
Italian, as well as English. But none of us here, so far as I know, speak
illegal alien.
