Has America Been Too Hard on President Bush?

I found this article from the Wall Street Journal today that talks about how disgraceful it is for Americans to treat President Bush with the disrespect that they do.  I wouldn't be surprised if this is a trend the mass media will begin to pick up on in the coming months.

If the media starts talking about how wrong it is for American people to disagree with Bush or speak out against him, it is setting us up for attacks if we speak out against president-elect Barack Obama.  Just about anything I hear about Bush anymore is negative - whether it is another student, a co-worker, my bosses, news articles, or the radio talking about our current president.  I expected larger media outlets like WSJ, CNN and FoxNews to make Obama's transition to the presidency easy, but I didn't think they would do it by attacking president Bush's attackers.

Anyway, it's an interesting article written by a man who interned with John Kerry during his 2004 election campaign.  I have to wonder if this article would have been published had the outcome of the presidential election been different.
