Mr. Justice Roberts flubbed his lines, and my boss, thinking it was Obama's doing, almost crowed with delight.
His animosity runs as deep as the muddy Alabama River.
Sheesh!

My husband isn't too thrilled either. He says he wasn't around for the start of the country, maybe he'll live to see the end.

Mmm. Some poor guy got preserved forever *yawning* during Obama's speech... oof.
That was Obama's brother in law, Michelle's brother. I laughed about that too.

Well you know black folks. Prol'ly up all night drinking cold duck and 40 oz and eating chicken wings.
For those of you who don't know what sarcasm is, that was a joke.

I think Justice Roberts was nervous. That's understandable.

You FOOL. Justice Roberts flubbed the oath. Obama gave him a chance to correct it.
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.
Roberts then repeated the phrase correctly, putting "faithfully" in the right place after execute: "faithfully the office of president of the United States."
But Obama instead repeated Roberts' original, incorrect version: "... the office of president of the United States faithfully."
Later, as they shook hands before a lunch in the Capitol, Roberts chatted briefly with Obama and appeared to say that the mistake was his fault, not Obama's.
