    OBAMA RE-SWORN IN At 735 pm, Roberts administred the oath of office again to obama in the map room. Robert gibbs said the wh counsel, greg craig, believes the oath was fine Tuesday, but one word was out of sequence so they did this out of a "an abundance of caution." "We decided it was so much fun..." Obama joked while sitting on a couch. Obama stood and walked over to make small talk with pool as roberts donned his black robe. "Are you ready to take the oath?"

    Vice President Biden took a stab at Chief Justice John Roberts on Wednesday, one day after the chief justice flubbed the oath of office that President Obama was to recite at his inauguration.Biden was to swear in senior executive staff at a White House ceremony after having already given the oath to newly confirmed Cabinet secretaries. When Obama reminded him that he had only done the one group and hadn't done the second yet, Biden quipped, "My memory is not as good as Chief Justice Roberts."
  • Give Obama A Pass on Oath Flub?

    Give Obama A Pass on Oath Flub? Have you heard? Chief Justice Roberts mixed some words around in the Presidential oath that Presidents take upon assuming the office. The oath should read as follows: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." It seems that Chief Justice Roberts put the word "faithfully" in the wrong place. It was then repeated incorrectly by Mr. Obama. Should we give Mr. Obama a pass?...

    "Well, again, we're wondering here whether or not Barack Obama in fact is the president of the United States," Chris Wallace told Fox News viewers, well over an hour after Obama had taken the oath of office today. Fox News replayed the swearing-in moment when President Obama and Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. each bobbled the words to the constitutional oath. "They had a kind of garbled oath," Wallace said. "It's just conceivable that this will end up going to the courts," Wallace speculated.

    WASHINGTON (AP — Chief Justice John Roberts swore in Barack Obama as president Tuesday in the first of what could be many important interactions for the two men of differing politics who rose quickly to power. The encounter was briefly awkward after Obama stepped on Roberts' opening lines from the 35-word constitutionally prescribed oath of office. The chief justice wandered into a verbal detour of his own. -snip-

    So the oath didn't go particularly well, and here's why. Chief Justice John Roberts screwed up the second line and it seems that threw Obama off track. Check out video here: http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=true&mediaKey=1b39f22f-a69e-43d6-b5ff-85b974615dd8 The oath, found in Article II Section I of the Constitution, reads, I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States.... The Chief asked Obama to repeat these words, "...that I will execute the office of President to the United States faithfully...." It's "of" the United States and the word "faithfully" should have come before the word "execute." After that,...

    As a conservative and a patriot my message for liberals is simple – we get it. You hate us, and some of you hate America. When Lyndon Johnson ran the “Daisy” ad suggesting a vote for Goldwater was a vote for a nuclear war, we didn’t get it. When you usurped the foreign affairs’ powers of the president with the Boland Amendment, we didn’t get it. When you smeared Col. Ollie North and tried to convict him of a crime, we didn’t get it. When you hunted through Judge Bork’s garbage and tried to smear him using receipts of his...

    Brigham Young University students tried to pin down the U.S. Supreme Court chief justice on hot-button topics like extraordinary rendition and Guantanamo Bay detainees during his speech today at the Mariott Center. After spending nearly half an hour talking about the Constitution, Chief Justice John Roberts took another 40 minutes for questions from the approximately 7,000 students, faculty and family members in the audience. Evan Crockett, a 23-year-old student, wanted to know how Supreme Court decisions could affect foreign policy in matters like detainees. The justice said the court doesn't even take such ideas into consideration. "My question was pretty...

    WASHINGTON - Chief Justice John Roberts suffered a seizure at his summer home in Maine on Monday, causing a fall that resulted in minor scrapes, Supreme Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said. He will remain in a hospital in Maine overnight. "It's my understanding he's fully recovered, said Christopher Burke, a spokesman for Penobscot Bay Medical Center, where Roberts was taken. Roberts, 52, was taken by ambulance to the medical center, where he underwent a "thorough neurological evaluation, which revealed no cause for concern," Arberg said in a statement. Roberts had a similar episode in 1993, she said. Doctors called Monday's...
