Double Standard?

Is there a double standard at play, with all this recent Kerry bashing? Methinks.
There was an old joke back in the Cold War:

Proud American to Russian guy: 'In my country every one of us has the right to criticize our president.'

Russian guy: 'Same here. In my country every one of us has the right to criticize your president.'

That seems to be the way John Kerry likes it. Americans should be free to call Bush a moron, a liar, a fraud, a deserter, an agent of the House of Saud, a mass murderer, a mass rapist (according to the speaker at a National Organization for Women rally last week) and the new Hitler (according to just about everyone). But how dare anyone be so impertinent as to insult John Kerry!

If Kerry did not come out swinging as he has, wouldn't there be a constant refrain of "Kerry is so weak" "Kerry can't even stand up to the Swift Vets, how will he stand up to Osama?" and on and on? Given the choices at hand he probably made the right one.

I also find it very humorous that the Steyn chastises Kerry for going apeshit on his attackers and then in the next breath praises the Republicans for doing the same thing in regards to terrorism.
