A reason to be thankful for the Roberts screw up...

[Clio the Leo]

..... without the flub and the nervous laughter that followed .... we might never have seen these smiling photos from Dr. Cool....







We know our Barack would have othewise looked grave and solemn ..... and while that suits his personality .... I think his GIANT GRIN is much more typical of the joy that we are all feeling.

And it's these images that will live on into history.

1. Cool photos!

But ... OMG!!11! That book Michelle's holding actually says "The Koran for Terraists!!1!!"

:rofl:

[kirby]

12. That is the actual Lincoln Bible...

In case some were not aware...

[roguevalley]

15. I wonder what the bookmarks are about? Lovely, lovely, lovely.

[NoPasaran]

17. And when it was used to swear in Lincoln

The oath was administered by Chief Justice Taney, who wrote the Dred Scott decision, which held that any person descended from Africans was not a citizen of the United States.

[booksenkatz]

21. Hear, hear, Malia is ON to the idiot neocon! nt

[mtnsnake]

7. Awesome pics, Clio!

:thumbsup:

[glitch]

11. Why do I get the feeling that someday Malia is going to an awesome professional?

Maybe an attorney, maybe a "community organizer", doctor, teacher, whatever.

Aware at 10, that's a great head start.

14. I cant wait to see the book she hopefully publishes....

.... containing all of these pictures she's taking.

[beac]

18. She is incredibly poised for a 10 year old. And she appears to have a wicked wit too!

I'm sure we'll see great things from her in the future. Perhaps the first daughter share the title of POTUS with her father? :)

[glitch]

20. I can see it! :) nt

[firedupdem]

16. Senator Kennedy in the second picture beaming with pride as

President Obama took the oath.

I pray for both senators today. Kinda took the wind out of my sails for the parade.

[beac]
