Quote# 57365

Interesting that Obama didn't use a Bible when he took the REAL oath. One has to wonder if the "flubbing" of the oath during the original ceremony, where he used Lincoln's Bible, wasn't accidental. That way he could have the prop of the Bible, to satisfy some people, but not take a "real" oath thereby not breaking whatever true religious or cultural beliefs he has internally. Then take a "real" oath without the Bible later. Interesting.

For the last time it was Justice Roberts who flubbed the oath, not Obama.

And for the next to the last time, he becomes the President whether or not he even takes the oath.

Hey let us all give in to conspiracy theories. Did you all know JFK and Tupac were at the inaguration also? Well they were.

Did you take special courses to become this ignorant, or does it come naturally?

Interesting that we need a book on an invisible sky man to show the dumbest nation on Earth who's president.

First off, Obama is not the first president to have had mistakes during the recitation of the oath. In fact, there were four other presidents before him where the oath was flubbed.

Second, placing one's hand on a Bible is not a requirement for taking the oath. There were several presidents before Obama that did not use the Bible at all when taking their oaths.

Can you PROVE that he didn't use a Bible?

No?

Then STFU and GTFO.

I'm beginning to *hope* he actually swore on a Koran or Darwin's Origins of Species or something. Maybe one stacked on top of the other.

@ A Friend: Elvis too!!

Honestly, I really thought I saw on the news that he used a bible the second time, not just the Lincoln Bible, because it had been put back at some museum or something.

The only picture released of Obama taking the second oath shows him with his right hand up and his left hand at his side. Apparently he didn't use any book at all for the second oath.

Here's a URL for the picture; http://media.washingtontimes.com/media/img/photos/2009/01/22/20090121-221922-pic-623461027.jpg

Yes, it is. Very.

Did you also know that President Obama swears to uphold and defend the Constitution? This piece of paper mandates the separation of church and state. It doesn't even mention the bible as part of the "real oath-taking." In fact, in its entirety, it doesn't mention any god, any religion, or any religious book.

This country has been a nation of the devil since 1787.

He didn't do anything wrong, you should be fucking glad that you have your first competent president in 8 years.

You don't need a bible to swear an oath.

An oath is calling god to witness that what one says is true; or that one will do as one promised. This does not require a bible.
