1. Hahaha... Thats incredible, wonder who administered it? n/t

[babylonsister]

3. Good question-I'm sure we'll find out. Maybe Judge Roberts, again? nt

[ronnykmarshall]

24. Roberts did.

[babylonsister]

26. Thanks-I heard he wore his here-come-the-judge robes, too. So

this was serious. And now it's officially history. President Obama has a great ring to it.

[Cha]

21. That's my question and exactly what

time? If you're into astrology like I am..yesterday at any time before 12:30pm the Moon was VOC and not a good beginning but today is so much better for the start of Obama's Swearing In.

So, according to me(and others) Robert's actually did us a favor. I also think Hillary's confirmation was much better for today than yesterday morning. Call me crazy or whatever but I find this amazing and another freakin' miracle.

[RichGirl]

33. I know just a little of what you are talking about....

It's incredible that it worked out this way. An Obama miracle!!

[merh]

29. Roberts did

He put on his robe and administered it again.

[Uzybone]

2. LOL. Thank you John Roberts, you dumbfuck

At least Obama didn't make a big deal out of it.

[babylonsister]

5. And now no one else can either. Brilliant! nt

[tridim]

4. Freepers: If you take the oath twice they cancel each other out.

[babylonsister]

7. Ha! That wouldn't surprise me. I hope he taped it! nt

[LakeSamish706]

8. Damn, don't put that in their heads, they will probably run with it. n/t

[Ken Burch]

28. Then again, they couldn't make that argument without admitting that the first oath counted.

And that would mean arguing that the oath was a legal negative. A "double affirmative" would STILL be an affirmative.

[tridim]

30. Good point

and good luck convincing them.

[RichGirl]

35. We need a troll in there and tell them that Obama is sworn in for TWO TERMS!

[Graybeard]

6. Can we "do over" the confirmation of Roberts?

[LakeSamish706]

12. Wouldn't that be great, and do Alito while were at it. n/t

[Ken Burch]

32. Somebody check the tape of Roberts' swearing in.

Dubs coulda been slurring his words, y'know. Way I remember it, Dubs passed out half way through it and puked in daddy's lap.

[Sebastian Doyle]

34. If Roberts fucked up his own oath when HE took it.....

...does that mean he's not REALLY Chief Justice?

Using the Freeper "Logic" it would have to mean exactly that.

Now if we could just get rid of Fat Tony and his sidekick Clarence the Clown.......

[greguganus]

9. Smart move, Mr. President. n/t

[polichick]

23. Definitely! I wouldn't put anything past the people who stole 2000 & 2004.

[EFerrari]

10. The freep supreme couldn't even administer an oath. What a disgrace to his country.

[calimary]

17. No kidding.

Just a disgrace! He should be ashamed of himself. He should resign.

This just blows. roberts just blows. Mr. President, they don't make it easy.

11. What a maroon.

I'm just sad I didn't get to see it.

[MoonRiver]

13. Unbelievable!

Was Chief Justice part of some bizarro right wing attempted coup, through constitutional fumbling?

[babylonsister]

14. No, I think he just messed up. I can't imagine he'd try to intentionally flub

this with millions of people watching.

[MoonRiver]

16. I'd like to think that.

But I've become so paranoid over the last 8 years, that it is a knee jerk reaction now.

[WeDidIt]

15. IT WAS A FRAUDULENT RE-TAKING OF THE OATH!

HE faked it!

Nobody saw it so how could he have taken it agan, just like his birth certificate!



Sorry, getting a step ahead of the Birthers.

[Graybeard]

18. Does Obama have to watch that parade again? And the Balls?

And re-rescind all of those Bush proclamations? Good grief, it's "Groundhog Day"!

[IndianaGreen]

19. But, but, Rush and his ditto heads were going to pounce on this for weeks on end!

What will they do now? Aaaaarrrrggghhhh!

[babylonsister]

20. That's the beauty of this. Now they can't bitch. nt

[IndianaGreen]

22. Roberts is part of the birth certificate conspiracy!

And Obama was involved in the assassination of Vince Foster!!!!!!

And my vibrator fried!!!!!! Oh, the pain!!!!!!

[BrotherBuzz]

25. Preemptive President

I do believe this Obama fellow is up for the game. Bring it on! I like!

[BlooInBloo]

27. Sigh. Giving in to idiots only has one effect...

More idiocy.

[Cha]

31. I have a different take on this..

I like the timing better today for Obama to be officially be Sworn In.

<snips>

"WASHINGTON — Chief Justice John G. Roberts was ushered into the Map Room of the White House on Wednesday night to re-administer the oath of office to President Barack Obama because the original oath on Tuesday had a word out of sequence.

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said the move was made out of "an abundance of caution" in consultation with White House Counsel Greg Craig. Obama's second swearing-in, devoid of the pomp of the initial event, took place at 7:35 p.m. in the presence of a few aides and a press pool. The chief justice was wearing a court robe. "Are you ready to take the oath?" Roberts said. "I am," Obama said, "And we're going to do it very slowly."

It capped a packed first full day for the 44th president, and comes on the heels of Obama's expected signing of an executive order, as soon as Thursday, shuttering the terrorism detention facility at Guantanamo Bay.

Obama began the day by attending a prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral, a tradition for new presidents.

He also celebrated a political victory as his former presidential primary rival, Hillary Clinton, was confirmed by the Senate as secretary of state, with a vote of 94-2."
