“I [Sara Taylor] , do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies,
foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely without any mental
reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So
help me God.”
As Jim White notes in comments, former White House official Sara Taylor actually went before the Senate and testified that she understood that she took an oath when she went to the White House that was “an oath to the President”: It’s easy to mock Blakeman’s warped understanding of how our Government works, but it isn’t principally the by-product of ignorance but, instead, a reflection of how our Government actually now functions.

Its not stupidity,its called contempt.
She and the whole gang need to be charged
as step one in returning Honor and Dignity back to the White House.

What they teach you at places like Messiah College, Liberty University and Pat Robertson’s Regent University is the Unitary Executive theory, AKA the resident is the King of Kings –if the president is a right-wing Christopublican, that is. (If it’s a Dem, then he or she is in league with the devil, of course.) Hey, it’s almost like Jesus is president.

Don’t you just love that practiced innocence and the sexy fiddling with her hair which is guaranteed to really send a tingle up their macho legs in every “HOW TO TURN A GUY ON” book and article in women’s magazines catering to the submissive types of Xtian fundi caliber.
We really do need to clean out both the repugs and submissive dems come election time. Send them all a message both partied will remember.
That is, if we have another election!!!

I wonder why so many of the Christopublican women — Monica Goodling and that annoying chipmunk woman who used to appear on Politically Incorrect come to mind — have these high-pitched ‘little girl’ voices and talk like teenagers?
Jebas, it’s either Nurse Ratchet leather-whippers like Ann Coulter and Lucianne Goldberg or these ‘teeny boppers’ devoted to ‘macho’ Republican phonies like Junior and Karl Rove. WTF?

You’ve noticed that too? Those high-pitched, nasal, baby girl voices like yapping Pekinese must really turn the good old boys on. If she also has a foreign accent they go hog wild. More than half the commercials use them and all the televangelists have a bimbo yes girl with that voice and look, and all three TV stations I can get here have them. I doubt that anyone has ever told any of them that their voice is very irritating (maybe not so irritating on the casting couch!) or that they should listen to a tape of themselves and learn to modulate their voice or get their nasal problem fixed.
I would like to add Condi to the dominatrix list. LOL
