He's president, he's black — get over it!

pagan Wrote:I totally agree with you on this...the Prez does deserve respect my only complaint is the people saying this now...had no problem with President Bush getting jeered and booed during his speeches...they had no problem with commercials depicting him as HITLER!!!!.....calling him a Nazi...i'd much rather be called a socialist than a nazi....President Obama deserves respect, but it seems it was ok for this stuff to happen when a republican was president....Bush got protested everywhere......it happens to Obama and the media CRIES outrage......it seems to be a double standard, but 87% of the news media considers themself liberal, which i'm sure kills the objectivity....but it'll be ok, the media will 'brow beat' these people into ignorant and racists and stupid people until everyone is afraid to disagree.....Obama has my respect b/c he is president, but he only has the other's respect because there is a big fat "D" beside his name....you didn't have to agree with Bush, but why did he not desever any respect either:flush:

Those comments I bolded hit the nail on the head. There is most definitely a double standard amongst the national media. If jeering the president is rude and disrespectful, then it's still rude no matter what party the president is from. And if it's considered patriotic and admirable to stage protests, then it should be viewed the same no matter who's being protested...
