Too funny... Well, it would be more funny if it weren’t so sad. It’s typical of Socialists like Obama to want everything just so — they are total control freaks, and I can just bet that is exactly what Obama is like. He wants everything a certain way, and is going to do everything exactly as he has planned out...

As for Biden - due to the serious gaffe with the first recitation, and the missing Bible for the Second taking of the Oath of Office - technically Joe Biden has been the acting President for some 36 hours by the time Obama repeated the oath satisfying the Constitution Requirement, and some are even arguing that he may STILL technically be the President due to the missing Bible in the “Do-Over”.

So, seeing that Biden was President for over a day wouldn’t that make him the 44th President, and Obama became/will become the 45th President once everyone figures out if they “did it right” or not!

This really is getting beyond ridiculous...

The Bible was missing at the “do over?” That’s the first I’ve heard of this.

There is no requirement to use a Bible in the Constitution. Since it is oath made just as much before the American People as before God, the oath is just as binding without it. It is an oath, not a magic spell.

And I don't expect that these people in the White House will be more likely to be restrained by an oath made on any quantity of Bibles.

As for Biden being President, he never took the oath of office, therefore he was always only Vice President.
