I had to take some mandatory training classes at work when I returned – safety related stuff. I was dreading the NORM Awareness (Naturally Occuring Radioactive Material) course, but found I was rather intrueged by the stuff they had to say. So here’s some knowledge for you.

    President Obama takes oath on “Lincoln” Bible. With all the events that surrounded the Presidential Inauguration, such as the prayers that were given, the chanting of “Obama, Obama…” during prayer, etc. the one that seems to be getting the most attention is the taking of the oath of office. Or should I say the re-taking of the oath of office? So I wanted to stir the conspiracy fires a bit and post a rant.     Why is it that our Congressmen, Presidents, etc, swear on the Bible as a part of taking office?
