HuffPo Hack: "Hey, let's impeach John Roberts!"; Update

There is no excuse for ruining the Messiah's Ascension.  I'm quoting the whole thing* :

There is simply no excuse for United States Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts bungling the presidential oath of office to such an extent that Barack Obama might need to do it again, at least in private, to ensure the legality of his inauguration.

Roberts should be impeached and removed from office for this unforgivable error. The Constitution requires certain language for a presidential oath of office. Roberts blew it. And if he doesn't understand such things he should be fired for misfeasance of the first order.

I guess this tool missed the fact that two other inauguration oaths have had to be retaken, apparently without requiring the impeachment of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.  I suppose this new impeachment requirement is what "Changetm" meant.  Oh, by the way, you'll never guess which station has hired this genius as a media analyst.

*Good luck suing me, Craigy, I have no money or savings or anything.  Certainly no unicorn farm yet.

Update: Even President Obama says that Chief Justice Roberts isn't to blame:

“We’re up there, we’ve got a lot of stuff on our mind, and he actually helped me out on a couple of stanzas there,” Obama told ABC News backstage at the “Neighborhood Ball.”

“So overall, I think it went relatively smoothly and I’m very grateful to him.”

Good on you, Mr. President.
