I'd disagree, I think the reason for the "unfairness" is two-fold, neither of which has to do with Obama at all.
1. He simply hasn't gotten the same amount of press as Obama, so not as many people know about it. The reason for this is...
2. The target of these rants isn't America, but Islam. Wright's anger is directed towards either the "white man" or America in general, but this guy's attack on Islam, after 9/11 and all these terrorist tapes threatening America is seen more defensive than anything else. It's seen as retaliatory than something coming out of nowhere.
That's how I see it.
