THe One could, and should, have moved the ceremony inside like Reagan did. Of course then the pompousness wouldn’t have been evident for all to see, so that really wasn’t an option.

Go ahead.
Make yourself look like an idiot.
Just don't say you weren't warned.
Are you saying that the musicians were faking the performance with props?
What else is faked!”
NObama and his entire campaign and this whole administration!!
Sure wish I could tell you that soon we will all wake up and it will be like Suzanne Pleshette and Bob Newhart at the end of the Bob Newhart TV show. It was all a dream!!
Fake Music for a Fake President. Appropriate.

I have no direct knowledge of what transpired up there on stage, and even tho’ I am but a lowly local musician, I always carry backups to our gigs. So I wouldn’t call them props, just the 2nd string (so to speak). My Gibson mandolin is gonna stay in the case if the conditions are not right for its use, it’s why I didn’t sell the Tacoma.
Wow, being a musician (woodwinds) I guess that’s the reason I have issue the the whole thing. Why risk playing very delicate, very rare string instruments in the cold in the first place? If you shouldn’t play a rare cello in the cold, why even risk having it outside. Did they think global warming would shine on DC for the day and it wouldn’t be cold, in January? Didn’t matter because the Obama Administration is just like the man himself. All show and no substance!
I’d wager their backup instruments were on stage. Being just a lowly local musician (at least we write our own stuff), I carry backup instruments to every gig. I’m usually thinking about strings breaking, but having played an outdoor gig in the spring, and our noon slot saw the thermomter not yet at 60 degrees, the Gibson mando stayed in the case and I played the Tacoma instead.
I bet Obama is a typical Liberal. They can dish it out but they can’t take it.
President Bush proved to be tremendously resillient, even when we disaqgreed with him.
Obambi won’t get through his first term without going postal.
