From the PolitiFact article: "If this document is forged, a U.S. senator and his presidential campaign have perpetrated a vast, long-term fraud. They have done it with conspiring officials at the Hawaii Department of Health, the Cook County (Ill.) Bureau of Vital Statistics, the Illinois Secretary of State's office, the Attorney Registration & Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois and many other government agencies."

It's a bit like the 9/11 hoax/inside job conspiracy theories. There would have to be a lot of people on the inside who at least knew what was going on, and they're not all going to stay silent. Our government is one of the most open, and thus one of the most leaky out there. I mean, one recent President couldn't even keep a blowjob secret. If such a massive crime against our country came from the inside, you'd never be able to keep it a secret.

A lot of different agencies and individuals would have to have been involved in this Obama hoax. Any person who blew the whistle would certainly be handsomely rewarded by the other side. The fact that we haven't heard a whistle means that there almost certainly isn't a whistle to blow.

It's annoying that these things go around, because as the PolitiFact article points out, conspriacy theories cost the government (and thus taxpayers) a lot of money. The TWA 800 investigator says that the conspiracy theories around that investigation cost the public $20 million. And in a lot of cases the people forcing the government to spend that money are the very ones who complain that the government spends too much. Freaking hypocrites.
