I like Obama's 'no jacket' thing. It gives the appearance that he's getting down to business.
I heard his earlier rule 'silly hats only' was rejected by Rahm Emanuel.

I have a crush on Rahm-E. There, I said it.

I can top that. I had a crush on Joe Lockhart.
Seriously.


:)

I can see that. Baby faced and attractive in a nerdy kind of way, and could get scrappy when necessary. Cute.

Yeah... Rahm is kinda sexy.

If you lust for river trolls.

To me he looks like someone who would live in a hole in the ground and every once in a while his head would slowly rise up out of that hole and he'd look around before withdrawing back in.

But my taste in men may be different than others'.

He's probably operating on an immense lack of sleep. I'm surprised he can talk coherently at all.

At least he isn't saying NEMO over and over. ;)

Heehee! Bush as Cicero! I just adore that you think that these Ums make Bush look good. I mean, they made 8 years worth of Bush quote calendars based on his really poor turns of phrase.

I happened to notice in between the Ums that he was closing Gitmo. Perhaps if Bush had done something good while calling people by nicknames and struggling to complete sentences, maybe people would have forgiven his crappy speaking ability.

UM, Hello? You do know that it was Roberts who flubbed the ceremony, not Obama, right? You're not deliberately posting misinformation, are you? Or was that supposed to be a (negative) joke?

Seriously, you may want to lay off until you get some actual meat to tear into. It may be a while. :p

The first line was supposed to be:

“I, Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear…etc.”

But Obama began repeating immediately after his name and was TALKING OVER the Chief Justice, who was saying “do solemnly swear.”

Roberts did not pause. Any video will show that his lips were still moving.

Obama screwed up first. Period.

If you don’t believe me? Watch Joe Biden’s oath. The pause occurs AFTER “do solemnly swear.” Unless you think Liberals are so without error that the "correct way" to do it is whatever way they happen to be doing it at that very moment in time;)

Roberts did omit the word “faithfully” and inserted it later in the sentence. Was he thrown off by Obama’s initial mistake? Maybe, maybe not.

Regardless, the assertion that Obama messed up is independent of whether or not Roberts mistake was or was not caused by Obama's flub.


After 8 years of shining a spotlight on every one of Bush’s verbal gaffes, the former Junior Senator has earned 4 or 8 years of the same. No one waited a few months, weeks or even days for Bush to get his feet wet....he was labeled a week orator right out of the gate and every single minor flub was on the news.

What disturbs me most of all is that with Obama’s FIRST WORDS AS PRESIDENT, much of the media(and his apologists) have already begun making excuses for him.

Incredible.

Oh, Judas Priest- they were both nervous, and they both screwed up. Neither side needs to make a federal case out of it, which is probably why Obama retook the oath- because you KNOW the cons would have.

Good lord- this country is falling apart, and the things people get pissy about...:rolleyes:
