Joe Scarborough Jumps All Over President Obama For Joking With His Daughter At Swearing-In

Leave it to the Human Sneer to find fault with a human moment, while demonstrating his ignorance.

On this joyous President Barack Obama Day, Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough badly misinterpreted a sweet moment during the President’s second swearing-in, and took exception to his declaration of “I did it!” to daughter Sasha Obama, moments after taking the oath. “You know what?” Scarborough said, “It was jarring to me. It was jarring to me because it’s not about I. It’s about we.”

Of course, the President and his daughters were obviously joking about his last swearing-in, at which Chief Justice John Roberts administered the wrong oath, and, in a lesser-known gaffe, was re-administered the oath without a Bible. There was no third try.

Seconds after being sworn in, President Obama hugged First Lady Michelle Obama (who said “Congratulations,” to which he replied, “Thank you, Sweetie.”), ten as he hugged the First Daughters, Sasha said “Good job, Daddy.”

“I did it,” the First Dad replied.
“You didn’t mess it up!” Sasha said.

Yet, wonder what her blood oxygen and carbon dioxide levels are because she never stops talking and does not seem to breathe between sentences.

it was a private ceremony, joe. the president was being "private" with his kids. it was so private a moment there were cameras in the room. we got to watch and hear all of it. get over it.

apparently, Scabby made the rightwing mad on gun control by hinting at some mild form of moderation, so the man RimJob once said he "adored" for pushing Bush's Iraq war is now their enemy - and this one was at the top of FR's key stories list:
