Barack Obama took muffed the oath of office today

There, fixed it to reflect events on the ground.

Did you expect any better? The oath wasn’t being administered by a teleprompter.

The Constitution stipulates the language of the oath of office. Since Zero has specifically NOT taken “The Oath” of office, is he really the president?

Actually, it was Justice Roberts that muffed it.

Correct oath:

“I Barack Hussein Obama do solemnly swear 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.”

What Justice Roberts was prompting him to say:

“I Barack Hussein Obama do solemnly swear that I will execute the office of President of the United States faithfully, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Fruedian slip?
