Federal Judge Clears the Way for Obama to Use "So help me God" in Oath of Office - Video 1/19/09

Here is a discussion about the use of "So help me God" in the Presidential Oath of Office that took place today on Fox News. A federal judge has cleared the way today for the words to be used in the Oath of Office. An atheist had sued to keep Obama from being able to use the words. The discussion on the video also talks about the use of ministers such as Rick Warren to pray at the inauguration. At least there is still one federal judge with some common sense left in his head. . . . . . . (watch video)

What does it matter if he’s not lawfully eligible to be the President of the USofA.

It’s all hollow words . . . who is Barry Zero trying to impress?

Why do Federal judges even bother with such trivial crap?

When you say “God” and think “Mohammad”, what difference does it make?

I’m surprised The One (piss be upon him) would even use anything other than “In My Name”...

The question should be is whether he has received permission from some mulla-mulla to use his middle name "HUSSEIN?"

I've heard he will use his middle name, BUT the person who will introduce the Marxist DEAR LEADER to the world, will do so simply as "Barrack Obama."

Someone else will have to let me know cuz I'd soon have a root canal (without anesthetics) than watch this phony, man-boy, take the oath.

So Help Me GOD! There I said it...I can't believe where we as a nation are going with this. A president shouldn’t have to get the courts permission to speak what he/she believes! This nation was founded on free thought and shared belief....if you don't like it leave...if you can't lead it then don't run for office!

So some idiot judge found some other idiot who “had standing” to go through this crap, but not one swinging d!ck in American had standing to challenge Barry’s burf records?
