Obama jumped in too fast on the first line at :40. Then Roberts put faithfully in wrong spot starting at :47. Then Obama mumbles And will to...best at 1:00 instead of And will to THE best.
Thats 3 mistakes. Picky, sure, but since Obamas flubbing of the oath is only being blamed on Roberts by the MSM and DUmmies, I thought actually listening to it and deciding for ourselves might be a better idea.

So the whole Bible thing was just for show, as I suspected.
And it was invalid because they flubbed it, so when they did it again the right way, no Bible.
That tells me everything I need to know.

No Bible
Outside of tradition there is no requirement for a Bible. In fact he could have had the sworn statement typed and signed it with witnesses and it would have been just as valid, imo.

Even the dumbest new recruit in the military gets only one change at his oath.

Could Judge Roberts doubt BHO’s status as a natural born citizen, so he gave 2 invalid OAF? Do you need a bible?

Why a third time? This time he can place his left hand on Aunt Ester's cook book.

The real point would seem to be:
If Obama is a practicing Christian as he has claimed:
Why was no Bible available at his home?

Yes. Those two words, No Bible.
Now if only we can find out what the prayer times are in Washington DC, plus Bambi’s agenda, then we can put two and two together.

Wait, if there was no Bible- then what did he “swear” on .... his own honor?
That’s a joke

Oh and also, if we can find out what’s regularly on the menu in the WH. You know, meat-wise.

Obviously, Bambi is sensitive to the ‘legitimacy’ issue surrounding his presidency. Now, how about that birth certificate ?

Using is a Bible is tradition, not prescribed by the Constitution.
It’s not required for others taking Federal oaths (military, cabinet officials, civil servants, etc.)
To: icwhatudo
Not like Obama would have a bible handy by his bedside or in his living room. Perhaps he had not yet unpacked his Koran.

Obamah through off the timing when he jumped in too soon, not letting Judge Roberts complete his first sentence.
