You think Chief Justice Roberts intentionally made Obama mess up reciting the oath?

[JEDI]

Roberts paused slightly, and Obama began to recite. Then Roberts began speaking again at the same time.

At the next passage, Roberts didnt put a pause in that long section, thus Obama didnt remember the words.

Tin foil Hat ACTIVATE!

It's a vast conspiracy so that later Obama can go back and say 'If you look at the tape I actually did NOT swear to those ideals.'

I think Roberts was just nervous. But Fox News will never make the story "Roberts fucked up"

Roberts probably has crappy phone number rhythm too.

"22 . . . 155532 . . . . 182 . . . 3233"

"Uhhh, Roberts? I think I got like 12 digits there, WTF?!"

It's okay. 8 years of liberal SCOTUS appointments will be payback enough.

Obama/Biden voted against Roberts' confirmation

Are you saying that Barrack Hussein Obama sounded inarticulate?

Gasp!!!

Roberts proudly carrying on the tradition of Bushisms? Can't let late night TV run out of material.

I haven't heard any pundit person talking about this foul up. Yet.

I think the better question is, "Which oath did he complete?"

His ... the Constitution ... or Roberts

That will be hard because him and his wife will be too busy living like a rock star for the next 4 years instead of working.

 

[Pepsei]

they both screwed up....

1. Obama jumped in before Roberts was done the first line: Fault Obama

2. Roberts put ?faithfully? in wrong spot and Obama stopped and looked confused: Fault Roberts

Here is a more clear account of what actually happened:

Separated by a Bible used by Abraham Lincoln at his first inaugural, Roberts asked Obama: "Are you prepared to take the oath, Senator?"

The former Illinois senator indicated he was, and Roberts started reciting ? and Obama repeating ? the 35-word oath that is prescribed by the Constitution.

But at one point, Obama paused abruptly after Roberts reversed several words in the oath.

The oath includes the phrase "that I will faithfully execute the office of president of the United States" but Roberts didn't say "faithfully" until after saying "president of the United States."

Obama apparently realized that something was out of order.

With Obama not reciting, Roberts then repeated the phrase correctly, the brief awkward moment ended and Obama was back on track.

Roberts botched his part.

Who cares? It was an amusing little mistake; laugh at it and move on. In the grand scheme of things, it means exactly nothing.

404 No Obamaism found.

ONLY because Obama realized Robert's mistake and paused to let him correct himself did Obama complete the oath, uh, faithfully . . . but nice try, troll.

Who knows. I remember when Bill Rehnquist could barely stand to look at Slick Clinton.
