We already know that the media made a huge deal about Bush spending $40 million on his re-inauguration in Jan 2005, but had no criticism of Obama spending an incredible $160 million on his Jan 2009 inauguration.

Or criticism of Bush's golf time in 8 years, as compared to Obama's golf time that exceeded Bush's in just Obama's first year.

Or the media's orgy of criticism over Ann Romney's expensive clothes, despite that Michelle Obama's designer clothing far exceeded Mrs. Romney's, but received no criticism.

Would that the media were capable of holding a Democrat president to the same standard.
