Double Standard

Already, in just two days, it is incredible to me to see the double standard and hypocrisy in the media and from Democrats. I have already seen a TON of things that President Obama has said or done that would have been headline news ridicule if President Bush had done the very same thing.
For example, today President Obama issued some executive orders, most notably the order that the Guantanamo Bay detention center will be closed within a year. During the ceremony announcing that order, President Obama read the order and had to ask his counsel questions several times as to the specifics of the order. I was going to link to the msnbc video of the conference to prove it, but of course, they have taken it down, probably just for that reason. Anyway, the questions he asked seemed like he had not read the order. The counsel would tell him something, and then he would repeat it verbatim to the press.
George Bush was criticized for 8 years for his ineloquence and called "stupid", "clueless", etc. If it had been him in there today, the press would have the clip all over the place as an example of bush's incompetence. Yet, because of the double standard and hypocrisy, the myth of Obama's total eloquence and sheer genius goes on.
President Bush and Vice-President Cheney were also depicted as evil, crooked, and criminal. Nearly all of Bush's nominees for everything were dragged through the mud in the process of confirmation. So when President Obama nominates a Secretary of the Treasury who didn't pay his taxes to the tune of $34,000, what does the media say? Not a word beyond, "people make mistakes, it was an honest mistake. It was TurboTax's fault." When Obama makes a rule that lobbyists cannot be a part of his administration and then promptly breaks the rule by appointing two senior staffers (Deputy Secretary of Health & Human Services and Deputy Secretary of Defense) who are lobbyists, does anyone cry hypocrisy? No, instead it is, "Well, all rules must have notable exceptions."
Gag me.
