[quote:Anonymous Coward 29042639:MV8yMDczOTU4XzM0OTE0MzU4Xzg0RjEwNzI3] [quote:ReVbo™:MV8yMDczOTU4XzM0OTA4ODQ0X0VGQkYwM0E0] What the hell is this about?! You don't swear in a president privately. Even Johnson had press all around him on the plane after Kennedy was assassinated, and THAT WAS A DAMN EMERGENCY, for God's sake. This is just like the last time. He flubs the first oath, then has his little private ceremony with an official photographer taking one picture. Now, we get an official swearing in, in private, and then, a bullshit formality swearing in that we get to see? It's because he wants to swear on a Koran, or because Roberts knows he's not eligible and insists on some unconstitutional process for the "official" swearing in. There is no legitimate reason to swear a President of the United States in not in full view of the American People. F*&^ this Kenyan. Do it on the steps of the Capitol and swear on the Holy Bible like the American Christian you say you are, and make that be the REAL ceremony, or it doesn't count. [/quote] [/quote]
Original Message
The White House Correspondents Association is strongly urging the Obama administration to allow press access to the president’s official swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 20, following indications from White House aides that the event could potentially be closed to the press.
