Yes, but the ignorance of this by our fellow FREEPERS is understandable. Shortly after the inauguration the MSM media began re-playing the oath, either taken from the microphone closest to Obama or with Roberts voice saying "... do solemly swear" digitally edited out. I heard the original replays from minutes after the event and then I've heard the later "un-Roberts" MSM version.

In the original video, played minutes after the oath (before MSM top management stepped in), Obama can be heard saying his name while Roberts is still saying "... do solemly swear". Note that during the VP oath, Biden waited until the end of "...do solemly swear" before stating his name. Note also that in the 2nd swearing in, Obama waited until Roberts completed "...do solemly swear" before stating his name. IMHO - had the Chief Justice been a liberal, they would have asked him/her to stop BEFORE "... do solemly swear" in order fit with the MSM plan to avoid making Obama look bad. Obama jumped in too soon with his name and threw Roberts off (and then Obama screwed up again when Roberts repeated it correctly). But history will not blame Obama because the Democrat MSM writes the history.
