Wow, the Huffington Post demanding that Congressmen follow the Constitution! Maybe there's hope yet.
In the interim any votes cast by these Bozos should not be counted until they have been officially sworn in.
Only when they are republicans - don’t care about the Constitution if they were democrats. and remember - the new editor at the Blaze come from Huffington...what was Beck thinking???
They say these guys are illegit eh. Well how about Obamas Birth Cert. Can we get a remote viewing of the real one?
There’s nothing in the constitution that dictates the method of taking the oath; it merely says that they must take an oath.
According to other stories, they already signed a written oath provided by the clerk of the house — that should be sufficient to meet the rules, but I don’t know exactly what rules the house is operating under and what they say.
The public swearing-in most certainly is NOT the one that meets constitutional muster — how would anybody prove that a person standing in that group of 435 people actually SAID the words? I’m sure the written document is what they file to prove people were sworn in.
It doesn’t shock me that this is still being talked about, because the liberal media will run with any absurd non-story it can find.
