NEWS ALERT: NO BIBLE USED AT OBAMA RE-SWEAR... | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 599493 Australia 01/23/2009 07:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What the fuck does it matter whether there was a bible or not? Quoting: TheRoaminGnomeSimple. Our founding fathers designed our constitution after what is contained within the dusty pages of your bible. Our values came from the root core of what is contained within your bible. I know, it's a hard pill to swallow, however, it is what it is. The fact that Obama steered away from this in an almost accidental manner should make one raise their eyebrows and question why. Wolf in sheep's clothing is what comes to mind...... Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." [link to www.usconstitution.net] How can it be the law to force the President to swear on the bible? The first amendment prohibits the government from forcing President Obama to do anything religiously. President Obama is free to do whatever he wants, personally, when it comes to religion. He does not have to swear on the bible. Freedom of religion means that somebody from any religion can be President. And they can swear on whatever they want, or nothing. It was no accident that Obama didn't swear on a bible. The White House has a library, which is certain to contain a bible. Obama didn't want to swear on a bible. |

Quoting: OBAMA DENIES BIBLE 594600[link to www.washingtonpost.com] After a flawless recitation that included no Bible and took 25 seconds, Roberts smiled and said, "Congratulations, again." Obama Sworn In Again, With Right Words By Michael D. Shear Washington Post Staff Writer Thursday, January 22, 2009; A04 In golf, they call it a mulligan. A do-over. There's no formal name for what President Obama and Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. did last night. After flubbing his one role on Inauguration Day -- administering the oath of office to Obama -- Roberts traveled to the White House to re-administer the oath. Just to make sure. "We decided it was so much fun . . .," Obama joked while sitting on a couch in the Map Room. Obama stood and walked over to make small talk with pool reporters as Roberts donned his black robe. "Are you ready to take the oath?" Roberts asked. "I am, and we're going to do it very slowly," Obama replied. After a flawless recitation that included no Bible and took 25 seconds, Roberts smiled and said, "Congratulations, again." Obama said, "Thank you, sir," and then added: "All right. The bad news for the [reporters] is there's 12 more balls." A president is required by the Constitution to say, "I do solemnly swear 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." At the inauguration, Roberts instead said: "that I will execute the office of president to the United States faithfully." In a statement, White House counsel Greg Craig said the oath was re-administered "out of an abundance of caution." "We believe that the oath of office was administered effectively and that the President was sworn in appropriately yesterday. But the oath appears in the Constitution itself," Craig's statement said. Two presidents -- Calvin Coolidge and Chester A. Arthur -- have retaken the oath because of unusual circumstances the first time around. The Map Room ceremony was less grand than the original one in front of the throng on the Mall. But it was certainly warmer. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 594600There is OVERWHELMING PROOF THE FOUNDING FATHERS WERE CHRISTIAN! Study, before you lie, please. Is that how you do it? So it's step one, study, step two, lie. The first amendment is about freedom of religion, right? So the people who wrote that clearly said that they wanted people of any religion or no religion to live in the USA. Surely you can't deny that. |
