Sure hope so. I think I can give him a break on the oath. I cant imagine the pressure he must have been feeling. I thought he did a good job on his speech, and really liked Rev Rick Warrens prayer as well.

I have to give him a pass on the oath, much as I hate to. John Roberts is actually the one who butchered it. It's supposed to go "faithfully execute the office" and Roberts said, "execute the office faithfully". That threw Obama off.

I went and watched it with two local judges in chambers. All Republicans. They blamed Roberts, too. :lol:

I did not get a chance to see it, did R.W. end his prayer in "Jesus Name"?

He did... in several languages: Yeshua, Issa, Jesús...
"God is excited to show you mercy. He rises to give you His compassion." (Isaiah 30:18)

"For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)

Scriptures quoted, prayers in the name of Jesus, shouts of "Amens" from the crowd. I almost felt like I was in a revival.

Funny how it's all suddenly not only acceptable with the media, but beautiful and moving.

When Bush referred to a scripture or line from a hymn, they hated it. But then they just plain old hated everything about the man.

I am so glad, for his sake, that he's gone.

I agreee, Paully, the pressure at the moment was tremendous. Rick Warren did great, He was a great choice.

Praise the Lord! That is so awesome, I'm thankful for men and women of God who refuse to bow to the world. To God be the Glory...

Here's a video clip of Warren's Invocation at the BHO Inauguration.
"God is excited to show you mercy. He rises to give you His compassion." (Isaiah 30:18)

you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)
