3. It takes a while for the wheels to stop spinning.
It's a good point to make even though the moment has passed. Let's never forget what the bush regime was really like!

4. I would rather have stagged music than a stagged war.

10. DING DING!!! WE HAVE A WINNER. Weather issues.
You really don't want to be playing those instruments in that cold DC weather. You pretty much have to fake it, otherwise the music will sound terrible, and the musicians will be miserable.

7. We all know that Yo Yo Ma and Itzhak Perlman
have no real talent and they had to cover it up some how.

8. good one...
and not playing live outside on a frigid day is so comparable to faking a war, or other criminal actions . What minds can make that leap?

12. That is too rich, it is almost impossible to keep instruments tuned in weather that cold.
Of course it was pre-recorded, it had to be unless you like screetching violin. Not to mention the fact that virtually every live performance in front of a large TV audience is at best pre-recorded and mixed with the live version. People in TV know this stuff. Joe Scarborough is full of shit.
