You Can’t Please Everyone: Obama Takes a Do-Over

Published by mayorofnowhere at 10:49 am under 1 Edit This

Some people seem to think that Obama retaking the oath is an admission of his own mess up. Those of us who are based in reality know why Obama re-took the oath.

When you have a group of people (read:right wing nuts) who will look for any and all reasons to tear you down, it’s better to have them do it over something that will only create a minor distraction.

As we’ve already witnessed on several occassions with people creating extraneous lawsuits over citizenship, etc., it’s better to throw water on fire early and let those self-serving know it alls say “I told you so” then let them get so frothy at the mouth that they start suing everyone in sight.

Now that these people can no longer question the validity of the swearing in, it provides one less distraction to Obama and his team.

It kind of reminds me of the spoiled child who is always nagging their parents about every little detail, and then get mad when their parents don’t get things done. Who do they blame? Certainly not themselves

    It was good that he got it out of the way. It would have dogged him if he had let his original swearing in stand.
