It's proof that Obama was in on it.


Shh...don't give the rightwing side of the lunatic fringe a chance to jump in here.

Or, worse yet, regicide will somehow link it to JFK's assassination.

No Obama should not retake the oath. The 20th Amendment says nothing about the oath of office. Sec. 1 Clause 8 of Article II is not null b/c 'faithfully' was put in a different place.


Ceremonies are like rituals. If they're not done correctly, they don't count.

Did you catch the WTF look Obama gave to Roberts during the oath of office ceremony? Roberts blatently misplaced the word "faithfully", and so Obama just looks at him like....WTF?!!!???? I think Roberts was getting back at Obama for voting against his confirmation. Unbelievable!


What in the hell are you talking about? Don't be idiotic, it's unbecoming, even of a liberal. Obama screwed up first [see my thread on this very point].


I think my point was pretty clear. Either you don't understand written English very well or your semi-retarded, perhaps both. Please make your point on this thread or shut up.

I made my point. Are you obtuse or just plain in need a reality check like a good whack on the head? Perhaps a week in a detox center for leftwing zealots might do the trick?

Let's see you criticize Obama with the same intensity as Roberts; then I might stand up and take notice.

Obama made the first slip by jumping the gun, which very well could have thrown Roberts off. Or Roberts could have been just as nervous as Obama.

Now, put a sock in it.

Unlike Bush, Obama may not be used to parroting what other folks say.

Calm down Spanky. Violence is never the answer. After further review, I now agree that it APPEARS Obama did interrupt Roberts during the opening line. Good work, Gomer!
