Obama ends oath with 'So help me God'By Bill Mears, CNN Supreme Court Producer Watch CNN's comprehensive coverage of President Barack Obama's second inauguration this weekend on CNN TV and follow online at CNN.com or via CNN's apps for iPhone, iPad and Android. Then, on Monday, follow our real-time Inauguration Day live blog at cnn.com/conversation. Need other reasons to watch inauguration coverage on CNN's platforms? Click here for our list. Washington (CNN) - At his request, President Barack Obama is ending his inaugural oath with: "So help me God." Those four words are not legally or constitutionally required, unlike other federal oaths that invoke them as standard procedure. Historians have wrangled over whether George Washington established precedent by adding the phrase on his own during his first Inaugural acceptance, but the Library of Congress website states he did.

And with 4 more years of Incompetent Obama at the helm the American people ended his speech saying –
"So, HELP US GOD!!!!"
BO, BO, BO,
You promised you would include the following in your speech. What happened?
The Apostles' / Agnostics’ Creed 2013 (updated by yours truly based on the studies of NT historians and theologians of the past 200 years)
Should I believe in a god whose existence cannot be proven
and said god if he/she/it exists resides in an unproven,
human-created, spirit state of bliss called heaven?????
I believe there was a 1st century CE, Jewish, simple,
preacher-man who was conceived by a Jewish carpenter
named Joseph living in Nazareth and born of a young Jewish
girl named Mary. (Some say he was a mamzer.)
Jesus was summarily crucified for being a temple rabble-rouser by
the Roman troops in Jerusalem serving under Pontius Pilate,
He was buried in an unmarked grave and still lies
a-mouldering in the ground somewhere outside of
Jerusalem.
Said Jesus' story was embellished and "mythicized" by
many semi-fiction writers. A bodily resurrection and
ascension stories were promulgated to compete with the
Caesar myths. Said stories were so popular that they
grew into a religion known today as Catholicism/Christianity
and featuring dark-age, daily wine to blood and bread to body rituals
called the eucharistic sacrifice of the non-atoning Jesus.
Amen

SAVING 1.5 BILLION LOST MUSLIMS:
THERE NEVER WERE AND NEVER WILL BE ANY ANGELS I.E. NO GABRIEL, NO ISLAM AND THEREFORE NO MORE KORANIC-DRIVEN ACTS OF HORROR AND TERROR LIKE 9/11.

THERE WERE NEVER ANY BODILY RESURRECTIONS AND THERE WILL NEVER BE ANY BODILY RESURRECTIONS I.E. NO EASTER, NO CHRISTIANITY.
SAVING 15.5 MILLION FOLLOWERS OF JUDAISM:

Obama is doing great! Soon all of us will be on welfare and food stamps!
The stock market is up 85% since Obama took over after Bush left it plummeting. It's the 3rd greatest gain ever for a first-term president.
Wow, Observer. I hadn't heard that statistic, but I'm not surprised. My 401 K is looking MUCH better these days. I guess Darwin doesn't keep up with the markets much....
Our $16 trillion debt will continue to eat away all those market gains as taxes will have to rise very soon to prevent another financial crises.
I just heard today total existing home sales for 2012 is highest in 5 years. Home prices up 11%.
http://www.realtor.org/topics/existing-home-sales
So you guys know not no one who has lost their job and can't find another? Tons of people in this situation. Also Darwin is right, there are MILLIONS more on food stamps since Glorious Leader took over. Google it!
Prayers are useless, ideas are priceless!!!
Some ideas for creating new jobs: (What are your ideas?)
1. Inst-itute an “old-house/condo/apartment” replacement program akin to the successful “automobile gas-guzzler” removal program. Today, there are simply too many houses, condos and apartments in the USA. It is significantly stupid to continue building new ones on new lots. Tear down existing dwellings and rebuild on the same lot thereby keeping the number of housing units stable and providing many jobs in the demolition, building material suppliers and construction industries.
2. Are big cities needed anymore? Most exist for the service industry and these days most services can be provided from the home via PCs. Time to consider big city downsizing with conversion of these outdated areas to parks and entertainment centers. Again, more jobs are created to accomplish this. (planners, architects, landscapers, construction workers and building material suppliers).
3. Fresh water diversions/capture: It is insane to allow all of our fresh water to flow back into the oceans. Areas like Southwest and Western states have droughts almost every year. Time to build huge canals from rivers like the Mississippi and Missouri to irrigate these parched lands. And it is time to dramatically increase the number of reservoirs in states like Texas, California, Arizona and New Mexico. Again more jobs created for planners, civil engineers, construction workers, building suppliers, farmers and ranchers.
4. R&E jobs- a. computer-driven cars, busses, trucks, planes and ships b. Robotic police, fire and protective aids c. More efficient birth control methods d. A pill to temporarily eliminate the s-ex drive.
5. A female “Viagra”
6. Continued search for cheap fusion energy.
7. Space jobs-a Moon/Mars stations/mining run by robots. b. Highly functional, well-equipped, super-fast interstellar probes
Why would he swear on Bibles to protect the Consti tution? He doesn't believe in either one...
Still having a hissy fit, Darwin?
I am a theist, and a moderate but even I find it a bit strange that we swear on Bibles for oaths. If you are some other religion you should swear on that book, or if an atheist you should swear on a copy of Hitchhiker's guide..or maybe sports Illustrated.
I dunno.
President Obama is asking the god of freedom of self rights , of freedom of all religions to bless America.
BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD AND ONLY ONE TRUE WAY THROUGH CHRIST.
WE ARE TO SERVE THE WILL OF THE CREATOR AND NOT THAT OF OUR OWN WILL OF SELF-RIGHTS.
I just got paid $6784 working on my laptop using these simple steps leaked on this web page. Make up to $85 per hour doing simple tasks that are so easy to do that you won't forgive yourself if you don't check it out! Payments are paid every Friday! Here is what I've been doing Rich45.ℂOM
American Jesus would be so proud!
Be nice to have a pres end their oath with "F*king A right I do!"

According to research by NASA, Mars may have been like earth, circulating in eastern direction, same as earth, but may be its circulation direction changed with a hit from a asteroid towards west. cause of loss of water and every thing else.
according to Islamic teachings, earth was barren and water rained for forty years , day and nights. It may have come from Mars. End of humanity is predicted in same manor, direction of earth circulation will be reversed, and it will be no different than Mars.

All so called atheists have a common denominator – they all lie all the time. Understanding atheism as one large lie helps put their stupid and vicious comments on these blogs in proper perspective.
Atheism is self center ism, denial of truth absolute, essence of existence. No different than a hindu filthy dog in a jungle, or a hindu atheist , filthy self centered criminal in a jail for not following truth absolute GOD, but following hindu filthy Lucifer, secular to commit hinduism, criminality.

The President officially put his support for gay rights in his speech. It's about time a President supported equal civil rights!
Yes that was awesome!
"It is now our generation's task to carry on what those pioneers began. For our journey is not complete until our wives, our mothers, and daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts. Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law – for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well."
It was a fantastic speech!
Correct civil rights not gods laws/RCC.or any other religion.
yeas LA, NY streets will be flooded with them and there's is going to be a big gay celebration and bang bang parties tonite
Shold be god(s)
"Correct civil rights not gods laws/RCC.or any other religion.
Wrong our church welcomes equal civil rights and gay marriage.
" and bang bang parties tonite"
I thought that was last night when millions were watching football.
Yes, I suspect Bob & Douglas will celebrate – privately of course.
@shawn: lol.
The ones that protest the most...
well in that case we should officially call MLK day as Gay Rights Day and people should be given a day off !! what do you think Hoorah?!
Right means limit of truth absolute, hindu filthy gay ism, hind love ism is not limit of human but hindu filthy animals, Shame on any one to act like hindu filthy animals, but claiming to be human.
100% guaranteed fake posing as Muslim or your money is back.
but daddy his hate towards Hindus, Jews, Christians, Gays is real. Money back guaranteed.
"Obama ends oath with 'So help me God'"
I look forward to the day when a President does not feel compelled, either by custom or personal beliefs, to do this, but it remains his personal perogative.
I wonder if it will influence any of those who still think he is a secret Muslim.
Did Obama place his hand on the Bible? Or did he place his hand on the Quaran? I saw Biden place his hand on the Biible but it looked as though the Obama-nation place his hand on several books. What were they?
@sandy,
perhaps you will find this helpful:
Obama to swear-in on a stack of historic Bibles
http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2013/01/10/
or even this:
Obama chooses Bible steeped in history
http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2013/01/20/obama-chooses-bible-steeped-in-history/
clueless and mannerless
Only God can help obama's failed Presidency now. God help us all.
Troll. Caught lying so many times it's ridiculous. Runs when asked to support his mutterings.
Awwww.....Johnnie....how is that temper tantrum going? Obama beat the best that the Repubs could come up with. It if grates on you, good. Choke on it.
Only 1% of species exist from the last mass extinction, yet some fools still hold to Darwin's racism as science.
Do you often act this stupid, John? Or are you making a special effort to troll today?
He's just repeating his comments from yesterday..."The Best Of" Tarver style.
Tarvey only has a couple of opinions, the ones he was told to have. That's why he has to keep cutting and pasting the same ones from the short list of opinions they gave him at church.
"The Best Of" Tarver style... lol
