I don't think the facts, whatever they may be, matter any more. This is now political. The DOJ will assure that Zimmerman is convicted of something. Witnesses and local officials will be gotten to and will either say the right things or be discredited and silenced. Lord Obama has spoken. That's not to say that Zimmerman didn't do something wrong. It simply doesn't matter.

You are right, the facts no longer matter.

The way things are going now, Zimmerman may be killed before he can be put on trial. If that happens, within 48 hours the mainstream media will have lost interest in the story.

I just wonder how much the White House or Media Matters is involved in pumping up this story. Sandra Fluke was to fire up the feminist part of the Obama base; the focus on the death of Treyvon Martin is to fire up the African American voters.
