Recent thread of member here infatuated with Senator Sasse sent me to C-Span. First thing I see is rather awkward swearing-in ceremony.

Sasse tells him how his daughter was not happy with it: "My daughter started 'debating the translation'," that our family doesn't use that, that we're New King James.
