Interesting. Several presidents have been re-sworn in before, and a few not on Bibles. (Coolidge and Teddy Roosevelt just didn't use the Bible for their oaths, and when Johnson was sworn in after Kennedy was shot, they just grabbed a leather-bound book with a cross on the cover that looked like a Bible, but it turned out to be a missal.)

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

But right wing white people can't be terrorists. Or something.
I'm sure that's what Billo the Clown and his ilk would say.

Now tagless for your comfort.
As horrifying as this crime is, I'm going to go out on a limb and say this man sounds more mentally ill than terrorist. I can't say I can diagnose him but a lot of schizophrenics are easily susceptible to abhorrent ideologies and act out on them. Not saying he shouldn't be punished for the crimes but I'm willing to bet testing will show some level of severe mental illness.
Terrorists act more out of pure intent.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Well, Ryan does have a legitimate claim to some human rights cred what with the death penalty stuff, and there is precedent for people who have mixed records (I'm looking at YOU, Henry K.) for getting the Nobel, so that's not terribly freakish.
However, Blagojevich continues to bring the capital-C Circus back into IL politics. Why hasn't he been forcibly escorted out of office yet?
