It's also interesting that during W's presidency, the national news outlets covered the anti-Bush protests like they were the best examples of democracy ever seen. They were Americans exercising their rights as citizens (100% true), and were always portrayed in a positive light.
Yet now that it's the other way around, my how the tone has changed. Now, the people protesting Obama are labeled as racist bigots or right-wing nutjobs. Suddenly, to protest is no longer seen as part of our democracy, but rather as something very un-American. Since when did disgreeing with those in power become unpatriotic? Apparently about 9 months ago...
Personally, I think that there was nothing wrong with those who protested Bush, and neither is anything wrong with the anti-Obama protesters. But I think that both groups should be given equal treatment by the national media.
