Don't have sound on my computer at work, so can't follow your link. I was reading the transcript on the original link. Chief Justice Roberts did screw up - if the transcript is correct.

More interesting is the fact that immediately realizing that there was controversy about the mangled oath, Barry re-takes it. Nipping any problems in the bud.

Makes one wonder all the more about his COLB which could also have been laid to rest so easily - if he was indeed born in the USA.

Pop Quiz: When will Obama release his Harvard and Columbia grades to the press so we can see how smart he is compared to previous presidents?

He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard, which means he was in the top 10 percent of the class. He's obviously very smart. Unfortunately, this could just make him all the more dangerous.

Is there any video on him taking it the second time?

Was going to ask the exact same thing. Where is the video?

How f'ing *dare* you question this. The Office of the President Select has stated that the oath was retaken, that it was perfect, and that crop production is now up 5%.

And that is good enough for you. Now get back to peasanting.

Splitting hairs over the question if an illegal alien, not constitutionally eligible to hold the office, repeated the oath correctly.

It boggles the mind.

You would think that as bad as The Messiah wanted to rule the world that he would have memorized not only HIS PART but also the part of Roberts.

That would have required work. Work is for the little people, not the messiah.

Good. At least he still feels the need to pretend to respect the Constitution he has solemnly sworn twice to preserve, protect and defend.

Then watch it, everyone of them except Johnson said.

“I _________________ do solemnly swear”

not

I Barack........ I Barack Hussein Obama do solemnly swear.

Johnson’s oath wasn’t done by the Chief Justice. 0bama screwed up too. He got ahead of himself and didn’t wait for Roberts to finishing saying “I Barack........ I Barack Hussein Obama do solemnly swear” before trying to say it himself. They both messed up. If people are going to make a issue of Roberts fn’ up we should make a issue of 0bama messing up too because he did.

eh....I don't think that was the issue. It was the bit about "faithfully".

Read the transcipt - it's clearer there.

Its like his ice skate laces came loose and he had to go back and restart, after he batted Nancy Kerrigan in the knee.

Obama: The Tonya Harding Presidency.

Let's just dissect the logic and strength of that assertion, shall we? How, precisely do we *know* he graduated magna cum laude? Because he *told* us? Until his records are released, it's hearsay, nothing more.

Secondly, how intelligent does one really have to be to be equal in wisdom or demonstrated expertise to other Harvard alumni, e.g. Russ Feingold, Carl Levin, or Chuck Schumer?

Not very f'ing much.

Yeah the important tradition of swearing in someone borne in Kenya and who is a citizen of Indonesia.

Roberts and SCOTUS only mistake is denying lawful cases asking for proof and to enforce the Constitution.
