On his new Fox News show, Glenn Beck panicked about the re-do oath of office
President Obama took last night, because Obama did not place his hand on a
Bible. “I checked. We have never had a president sworn into office without a Bible."
However, official records kept by the Architect of the Capitol show that Teddy
Roosevelt did not use a Bible in 1901; and Lyndon Johnson is rumored to have
used “a Catholic missal aboard Air Force One after Kennedy’s assassination.”
According to his own letters, John Quincy Adams placed his hand on a constitutional
law book rather than the Bible.
Finally, Glenn Beck reportedly follows the Mormon religion which teaches that the
bible is corrupt in its translation, thus the need for the Book of Mormon to correct the
bible's supposed errors.
