Compare the rallies

On one hand, you have the Obama inauguration, where as far as the eye can see, 100 tons of trash lay after the participants left. Over at Fox News:
The scene looked more like the leftovers of a massive college frat party. 
Heaps of plastic bottles, food wrappers, soda cans, and newspapers, which blanketed the National MallWednesday morning, were a stark contrast to the stateliness and splendor of President Barack Obama's inaugural ceremony a day before. 
One hundred tons of trash were collected by city and federal sanitation workers, according to Department of Public Works public information officer Linda Grant.
  This behavior is typical of liberals and so-called environmentalists who preach one thing and have a different set of rules for themselves than you.
  Now look at this video. This is typical of conservative gatherings.
  What does this say about character? What does it say about integrity? 
  No word yet on the mess left from the Sharpton (of Tawana Brawley hoax fame) rally, which was attended by about 3000 people. We'll see.
  Witness the difference.
The hate spewed at the Sharpton rally did not compare at all to the positive reinforcing message delivered at the Beck rally, yet all around the news and blogosphere is mockery, derision and hate toward what happened yesterday. Trolls invaded the Facebook, c-Span and Special Ops foundation comments section. Twitter was alive with derisive jeers and hate, hate, hate. 
  Yet these haters accuse conservatives of the very conduct of which they are guilty.
  Huh. This video shows it all.
  Again. What does this say about character?
