What Americans have learned is that those who take oaths and those who keep them are seldom the same folks. “Oaths” seem to come with more than a bit of “wiggle-room.”

Here is what an oath sounds like to a citizen:

“I (state your name) promise to protect and defend the constitution of the United States and to perform my duties with honor…..”

This could be a judge, a soldier, a dog warden, even a police officer. The problem of late has been that those who take oaths seem to have held what we term “mental reservations and evasions” while taking their oaths.


They think they swore to “weasel word” oaths.....
