Colorado Pols's goal is always to legitimize the protesters and embarrass Republicans exercising their legal rights. The media doesn't have to do your bidding.
So X Prez GW coming to Denver isn't news. Got it. And of course doing your team’s bidding by making a big deal out of Udall hiding is completely different. Check.
Bush is a private citizen. I hope private citizens are not harassed by protesters.
Udall hid from the president of the United States. The difference is night and day.
And what, pray tell, would the Post have written? When Obama came, and Udall didn't, there was still an event to cover. Udall's absence was noted.
But just how is a reporter supposed to cover a closed event?
Yep. Absence of photo ops is a story in itself. The Post is now officially a Republican press release and campaign arm rag. Wonder what Dems they'll endorse in 2016. My guess, they'll pick a couple of tokens in races with foregone conclusions so they can pretend they're not an extension of the GOP.
Easy, you're supposed to smash the doors down like a good Occupy Wall Streeter, I mean Democrat, I mean reporter.
If the Post was an extension of the GOP, it would have had access.
Why, if the point was to suppress any publicity?
Exactly. The Post's action/ non-action was to help hide the event from embarassing public notice. In the Udall case their action was the opposite, to highlight the awkwardness of a Dem candidate running like hell from a Dem President. It's not difficult to perceive who's side the Denver Post is on from the plethora of similar compare and contrast examples so constantly provided and the history and content of their 21st century endorsements so far. Also from words straight out of Plunkett's own mouth.

Moddy, you're an idiot. Udall was running for re-election and the president of his own party came. Udall didn't, which was noteworthy.
Bush (Dubya) is not a private citizen. He's a public figure and will be until the day he dies.
Sort of like the the opposite of the June Denver Pride event in size. Pride, 300,000+ people. Bush village people, 2. It used to be that Denver Pride never got more than a sentence in the Post (when it was the liberal one). And, now the Bush cabal gets the same treatment,probably because the ownership of the media outlets made the decision to save Bush, the vi, and the other Bush from the people who do not like them..
