In case you missed it, ABC’s Robin Roberts asked Obama last night about the missed exchange between him and the chief justice (from the transcript released by the White House):

Q: During the taking the oath of office, Chief Justice Roberts inadvertently switched some words — you were trying to help him out there a little bit it seemed with your look.

THE PRESIDENT: We’re up there, we’ve got a lot of stuff on our mind, and he actually, I think, helped me out on a couple of stanzas there. So over all, I think it went relatively smoothly, and I’m very grateful to him.
