Rookie120 0 #1 January 20, 2009 WOW! The pressure must have gotten to him a bit. He mumbled through it a bit. I couldnt imagine having to do that in front of a couple million people. Hell I stumbled through my oath when I was sworn into the Army. And that was only in front of 20 people. Good luck President Obama. I hope you do good things for the people of the United States of America.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andrewwhyte 1 #5 January 20, 2009 The commentator on the network I was watching said the mistake was made by the Chief Justice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanG 1 #6 January 20, 2009 If by him you meant Chief Justice Roberts, who fucked up the first line in the oath. I think Obama was waiting for him to start over and they ended up talking over each other. I'm predicting a new wave of conspiracy theories about how Obama is not really the President since he didn't say the exact oath as written in the Constitution. I predict less than an hour before it makes it here in a new poll. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanG 1 #12 January 20, 2009 You're obviously part of the conspiracy. Nowhere in the Constitution is the time of inauguration mentioned. Article II, Section 1, does, however, state: QuoteBefore he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:--"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." Since that's not exactly what he said, he must not be the President. Only by uttering the magic words can the power be bestowed. Just wait, Rush Limbaugh will be making this point shortly. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
labrys 0 #13 January 20, 2009 QuoteNowhere in the Constitution is the time of inauguration mentioned. Bzzzzzzt: Except maybe in the 20th Amendment.Section 1: 1. The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3d day of January, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; and the terms of their successors shall then begin.Owned by Remi #?

matthewcline 0 #15 January 20, 2009 I agree, President Obama seemed to have practiced his part, the Chief justice, I think, not so much. It is as if the President was waiting for the Justice to undo his mistake, as was pointed out already. MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

wmw999 2,122 #18 January 20, 2009 QuoteGood luck President Obama. I hope you do good things for the people of the United States of America.I've heard a lot of good wishes from folks who most likely don't agree with Obama down the line. That's really good, and I'm glad to hear it. I think that we, as a country, need all those good wishes and efforts.
