President Obama Sworn In for Second Term

It’s official: we have four more years of Barack Obama as Commander-in-Chief. The President was sworn in for the second time today, as Chief Justice John Roberts delivered the oath of office in the White House Blue Room a little before noon. It will take place again in public tomorrow on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. Following the mishap in 2009, when Roberts misplaced the word “faithfully,” the judge read the oath this time around from a piece of paper. And all went smoothly, at least according to Sasha Obama, who reportedly turned to her father soon after his promise to uphold the Constitution and said: “Good job, daddy.” Obama, of course, already has a number of difficult tasks ahead of him. The economy isn’t exactly strong; a new NRA ad claims he’s a hypocritical elitist; and the top of gun control isn’t going away any time soon. How do you think the next four years will go?   Very well, we’re on the right track! Better than the last four years at least Better than the first term of Mitt Romney would have been Terrible, we’re doomed! View Poll »
