The horror! 
Fox News reporter Brian Wilson actually turned on the heat during a raucous press conference with Howard Dean yesterday and dared to ask him whether or not "people are focused on the other things that you've said about hating Republicans, about Republicans being dishonest and then this latest comment about the Republican Party is full of white Christians. You say you hate Republicans -- does that mean you also hate white Christians?"
Amid the cacophony in the conference room at the time, Dean ignored the question. After the event was over, Democrats were stunned and bewildered at how "rough" they were treated by the press.
Quick, let me get my hanky and violin.
Remember President Bush's news conference last month immediately following the Guantanamo Koran flushing story? Remember what reporters asked the President?
Q With respect, who made you the editor of Newsweek? Do you think it's appropriate for you, at that podium, speaking with the authority of the President of the United States, to tell an American magazine what they should print?
And this is acceptable, but asking Howard Dean a tough question isn't? It appears that the days of the elitism of the Democrats and their high expectations of being treated like rich uncles by news reporters may be coming to an end. And it won't be too soon.
Look for Daily Kos and Oliver Willis to go on a fishing expedition for nude photos of Brian Wilson any minute now.
UPDATE: Kokonut Pundits provides a fascinating history of racial policies supported by Republicans and Democrats. Guess which party has done far more, over the last 150 years, to strengthen Blacks in the United States? And no, Faubus, Wallace, Ervin, Gore, Byrd, Hollings, and Fullbright were not part of its membership.
As usual, The Political Teen has video. (Someone please tell me, does this guy have a life outside TiVo-ing every news channel 24 hours a day? Amazing.)
