Yeah, Obama should have had an index card as well, but Roberts screwed up. That is all... This made it a blunder and a half. This will not be talked about on the msm, which is sad.

Notice media isn’t screaming about how much Michelle’s hand made wool outfit cost the taxpayers either, unlike how they whined about how much Sarah Palins outfits cost the RNC, which is nowhere close to the hefty price tag Mishelle just bilked us all for.

I didn't see it either, just learned it from this thread. What you write is a possibility.

On Jan 18th, Jeremiah Wright said; “Michelle Obama is [or will be] the first African American sleeping in the White
House legally!”

LEGALLY - Now why hasn't someone commented on that? It was shown on Fox News with his picture and exact quote written out and the date. We are all questioning O’s ‘legal’ status and yet this comment was given a pass.

It was Obama that screwed up first, then, seeing Obama was having a brain freeze, Roberts began to repeat the line for Obama, but Obama jumped in and cut him off, making it all a garbled mess.

My thoughts too. I think they are sworn in privately and then go through the motions on the public podium. The oath is no big deal. Citizenship IS A BIG DEAL. Frankly, he’s a very dangerous man.

You’d think with Hollywood in their pocket they could have produced some sort of spectacular. The whole thing was somber. Even the yo Yo Ma piece was a downer. Very depressing day for America...

I doubt it

President’s Day replaced several President’s Birthdays

MLK Day is basically Affirmative Action Day for a philandering Commie

Hussein has no record of accomplishment and none that could possibly ever match or exceed that of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln

Hussein is also only 50% Arab-African - with zero American black blood - the slavery references are laughable!

His Selma story is as much Happy HS as Joe Biden’s fables and stolen writings

I read on Drudge that her yellow dress today cost $1,500.00. I have no idea who pays for her dress or ballgown, the government? Don’t know.

"Did you watch that segment where Wallace mentioned the flubbing of the oath, etc.?"

Yes, I did actually. Yeah, he made a couple of comments all right. One of those comments was that it would probably end up in the courts. That is reaching, at least in my book. Your mileage may vary.

"Chief Justice Roberts messed up as well.

That's because they both had a moment of truth at the same moment, not being able to hold a straight face as they faced each other during their moment of deceit as they stumbled through the rest of the oath. Yeah, that'll be worth a few laughs at the de-briefing.

Just watched the Gaff of Office.

It sounded like Justice Roberts flubbed by stating “execute the office of President TO the United States faithfully” but president obama got lost after stating “that I will execute... “.

"Wallace is just having a little fun tweaking people."

Good point and quite possible.

Roberts confirmed today what the democrats who allowed Bush to have him seated probably always suspected: the man will go along to get along, and the Constitution can be ignored when the mob threatens if it is invoked.

Okay, so now that we know the rules of engagement, what can we threaten?

Do we have mobs that can turn a downtown on fire if our hometeam wins a sports event?

Do we have mobs that can start riots if someone is accidentally killed?

Do we have mobs that can be bused to locations in short order if we don't get our way?

The only things of this type that comes to my mind was the impromptu crowd that chanted "Get out of Cheney's house!" in 2000, and the crowd in Miami that refused to let the Dade County canvassing board count the ballots behind closed doors.

Democrats who will never relinquish their control again.

I imagine King George III thought the same about his power. How did that eventually work out for him ;-)

That’s true, I often forget about things like that. !!!

devolve, all we hear is “African American”, the public doesn’t have a clue about his mixed ancestry. The news media surely does but doesn’t mention it.
