Back in 2005, the website Salon complained about the "unprecedented" costs of Bush's second inauguration ($50 million) and how the media were so uncritical (yes, I know).
Today, Bush declared a "state of emergency" (no irony there) over the security plans for this upcoming inauguration which is costing $160 million. Note that the UK Daily Mail link above specifies the costs while this AP report from WTOP only mentions the declaration.
However, there does not appear to be quite the same level of outrage at Salon over the "unprecedented" costs nor uncritical media. 131 stories about "Impeachment" and 0 stories about "Inauguration" in their index.
Hmmmm. Any guess as to why?
