Hell I just unearthed yet another lie in Jr’s past that his grandfather’s mother committed suicide in 1926. Obituaries give her cause of death as ptomaine poisoning! All this keeps coming out now instead of from research prior to the election! Disgusting to think how many times Stanley Armour Dunham used “my mother committed suicide when I was young and I was the one who discovered her body....”

That is creepy. What kind of man would claim his mother committed suicide vs. died of food poisoning? Here's the link from WaPo, Restless Searcher On an Improbable Path

No matter how many times he swears the oath, it still doesn’t make him an American.

Obama looks like someone who is always smelling his own farts. And enjoying them.

I thought that I was the only one who saw it this way.

Unlike BH0, LBJ raised his right hand and placed his left hand on something other and more significant than himself. THAT one conscious and quiet act—call it a “detail” or a “formality” —in and of itself speaks volumes about this POTUS and what he stands for.

Stress? Uncertainty? National crisis? The fear was that what had just happened to JFK was a precursor to an imminent all-out nuclear attack by the reds.

Unlike Pbama, LBJ's denomination and religious beliefs were never an issue:

“President Johnson frequently quoted the Bible to illustrate points that he wanted to make. His favorite quotation was from Isaiah 1:18, ‘Come now, and let us reason together.’ “

I wondered if, when this Marxist did the Oath Do-over, if he might have put his hand on the Quran this time? Another question I had is if he said, at the end, "So help me Allah."?

As I understand it from Drudge, the only thing I have heard is that there was no Bible present at the Do-over. If this is the case, the Oath was not sworn on the Bible, which would be no different than if it had done without the Bible on Tuesday. Was this dispicable act videotaped? I wouldn't be surprised if there were no cameras present. Is there precedence for this???? Is anyone else deeply concerned about this???? America?????

"Roberts completely screwed it up yesterday."

He had a "trigger", when Obama jumped in with his name while Roberts was still saying "do solemly swear".

Biden made a jab at Roberts and also just acted like the buffoon he is when swearing in the staffers.

Why didn’t he use Lincoln’s bible again?

It could have been snowing or a thunderous downpour of rain and that Marxist still would have used the famous Bible..but yet, he couldn’t be bothered to use it for a private swearing in? No other Bibles in the white house.

He missed a great opportunity to turn another Bible into a historic artifact. I am surprised he let the opportunity pass...

The shining light is that Obama is going to have to suffer through 4 years of Biden antics.

Hm...it is customary—just interesting, but then why would he have a Bible in proximity?

Question: do you think the use of the Lincoln Bible use was 2 fold—to try to make a big deal about his historic oath, and to deflect from fact perhaps that his family doesn’t own a cherished famiy Bible?

I greatly fear that he didn't use another Bible because he did not want to swear an Oath to God.

America is in serious danger.

they did this out of a "an abundance of caution."

Except for that natural born citizen Constitutional thingy.

“did not have his Bible”

I think this is extremely profound.

Of course there’s no requirement but God being left out is very interesting. As if God is saying “Not in my name.” Or He’s being told, “Not in your name.”
