#1 "My memory is not as good as Justice Roberts'."

Neither Joe's memory or quite frankly, anything else..... By the way, can we do a cost comparison analysis on the lst and 2nd inaugurations? Title it 'What was, and what should have been.' Of course the private session suffered from the loss of family oriented role models like rappers Nas, Jay-Z, and Kanye West. Smaller more discreet always has it's.... downside.

#2 What was left out of the story:

The president said he did not have his Bible with him, but that the oath was binding anyway.

Not necessary. The One can simply say, "so help me, me."

#7 I never saw anything by anyone anywhere about the oath not being binding.

And you know what sloppy Joe, nobody asked you anyways. You have a hard enough time on your own terms, nevermind (what the wife said concerning another classic Michelle outfit) Chief Justice Roberts having a giant banana staring at him.

Any takers on whether or not the commerative audio disc has the first or second oath?

#8 Obama is not the first President who retook the oath for similar reasons. Calvin Coolidge also needed a do-over.

#9 Did he have his fingers crossed both times?

What, you think he ~~and his clown posse~~ actually intends to defend the Constitution? More like offend it....
