Not, of course, that one is required, but that isn't stopping Drudge and the Echo Chamber from questioning the legitimacy of the 2nd oath. I've already seen comments from people claiming that they "knew" Obama would find a way to avoid taking the oath on a Bible, to some suggesting it was the presence of the Bible the first time that caused the flub, and so on. I'm just beyond disgusted at the moment. Note: I'm not including links because I prefer not to give them any traffic.
