38. Think back a few years. President Obama took an oath in public
during the inaugural ceremony. Then he signed a number of orders & nominations. Then he retook the oath later at the White House because the 1st oath was potentially flawed. I don't recall Huffing ton pontificating that the orders/nominations before the 2nd oath were invalid.

When JFK was assassinated, LBJ took the oath in Dallas on AF One. Nobody has seriously challenged it because LBJ's oath wasn't administered by the Chief Justice or in Washington.

This is all just HuffPo being guilty of "Public Stupidity."
