President Obama is putting a symbolic twist on a time-honored tradition, taking the oath of office for his second term with his hand placed not on a single Bible, but two -- one owned by Martin Luther King Jr. and one by Abraham Lincoln.

When barry touches the Bibles will it leave blisters on his skin.I would feel very apprehensive about standing near him at that time. God might send a lightning strike, in response to that act of blasphemy.

He needs two Bibles to convince us that hes telling the truth. It wont work. We know him well by now. The phrase 'swearing on a pack of Bibles' comes to mind. Usually it is invoked by a known liar that is trying to convince us to believe him this time.

Why in the world does he do 2 swearing ins? HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND WHY?The Constitution says the swearing in is on January 20. (20th Amendment, section 1). When January 20 falls on a Sunday, there are always two swearing-ins-- a private one on Sunday and a public one on Monday.

I guess he had to borrow someone elses Bible, not having one of his own?

Maybe by using two Bibles, some of the truth contained within will pass through his shields and change his heart?

The Con Man’s creed , “I'd swear on a stack of Bibles while standing on my mother's grave”
Do two Bibles qualify as a stack?

One is called the “Quran”. What is the other one called - “Rules for Radicals”?

Another reason ...
How about, STOP, get away from those, they are rare antiques, DON’T TOUCH.
Are they? Maybe they are just fancy copy covers, with WHAT? inside ...

“What a pandering egotistical narcissistic moron.”
It is beyond that; he is maintaining the facade that he is American, though he has no link to any real “American” experience. Foreign freak...

“The screwball left if trying to paint this whackadoodle usurper as the Next Lincoln because if there is another civil war they hope to really paint him as the Next Lincoln when he crushes the red states...”
Lincoln didn’t have the disarm the troops before he would address them. Obama isn’t finished gutting the military yet; he has to get rid of the serious/competent troops and replace them with deviants and welfare queens in uniform (butt size XXX large).

“His hand should be placed on his real bible. Karl Marxs Communist Manifesto.”
Right. He nursed on the “Communist Manifesto” and teethed on “Quotations from Chairman Mao.”

It doesn’t make any difference to him...in my opinion, for him to swear on the Bible means as much to him as a copy of Playboy or Hustler would mean to me..
To: kearnyirish2
I ran out of adjectives but that would only be redundant. As Sharpton said, “He ain’t from the ‘hood”
