John Brennan was sworn in today at the White House. He was confirmed as the new CIA director yesterday.

“Brennan was sworn in with his hand on an original draft of the Constitution, dating from 1787, which has George Washington’s personal handwriting and annotations on it,” according to the White House.  He does not appear to have placed his hand on a Bible, a Torah, a Koran, or other sacred religious text as he said the oath.
