My federal withholding on my bonus has always been much higher than my federal withholding for my monthly gross salary, how are they not taxed differently?
It's the witholding software - it basically thinks you now will have that as your month salary. You get it back on your returns.

Yes, this is why when big bonuses are forthcoming I ALWAYS change my "Federal" tax rate to EXEMPT. I itemize and for the last month of the year claim zero it all works out.
I let the State have their pennies no reason to mess with that one.
