I agree. Both left and right are needlessly making this a political cause celebre. Lots of knee jerk reactions.

Indeed.

25 years ago, we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash, and Bob Hope.
Today we have Obama, no cash, and no hope!

If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.

Or you can get raw with these strings.

How about this gamechanger from America's Got Talent (which they SHOULD have won).

And finally, this, dedicated to the one and only rdb2, whose eyes are growing dim.

Either way, the violin is sweet yet LETHAL.

Do it!

Is the Right doing it? I haven't noticed much. In fact, the Right right here, at first, when all the details were not known as they are today, was pretty divided between Zimmerman and Martin support. If the case which is several weeks old as of now was properly reported from the start, it wouldn't become such a cause celebre for the left. Imagine a headline as it should have been:

Neighbourhood Watch Captain Kills Marauding Thug Assailant!
