Obama's birth certificate: Final chapter. This time we mean it!

[SirMoby]

So many people believe ANYTHING that bloggers write no matter how insane it is. I know people love the message that so many liars speak because it helps in their belief but this is just crazy.

Back on June 27, 2008, PolitiFact published a story we hoped would put the whole Obama birth certificate controversy to rest. It ran under the now-laughable headline, "Obama's birth certificate: Final chapter."

Oh, how naive we were.

More than a year later, the debate continues to rage on the Internet among the "Birthers" movement, people who doubt that President Obama is a natural born citizen of the U.S., and is therefore ineligible to serve as president. Or at least, they say, Obama has yet to sufficiently prove things one way or the other.

Today, we examine two claims:

• WorldNetDaily's owners took out an ad saying White House spokesman Robert Gibbs "lied" when he said President Obama's birth certificate is posted on the Internet. We ruled that statement False.

• A chain e-mail claims that the Free Flow of Information Act of 2009 "would guarantee Barack Obama will never be held accountable for producing forged birth documents." It would not; it's actually a shield law to protect journalists from having to reveal confidential sources. We ruled the chain e-mail statement Pants on Fire!
