It’s like that little Chinese girl at the Olympics. What do you expect from a Marxist?

LOL. You are kidding, right? Have you ever played a stringed instrument in 20 degree weather? Obviously you’re not a musician at all. Those guys play rare and expensive instruments. Do you know what the cold would do to those masterpieces? Again, obviously not.

Attributing this to Obama is simply absurd. Read the article, the musicians were directly involved in the decision, and in their minds, it was the only decision.

Are you saying that the musicians were faking the performance with props?

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!
