He took about 8 days to comment on Gaza and even then didn’t really say much. I’m worried about our national security under this lefty. The oath is ceremonial and this will go nowhere of course. I’m hoping that all of these Obamites with great expectations keep those expectations... boy are they in for a surprise!!

"The oath is ceremonial and this will go nowhere of course."

The "Oath" is laid out in the Constitution Article 2, Section One, Paragraph 8:

Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation- "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

Its not simply ceremonial, its the Law.
