"We used to be able to depend on the press to keep an administration in line. Things have changed."

How so Jim? You talking Nixon? He was committing actual CRIMES. Obama is doing what we elected him to do.

"We used to be able to depend on the press to keep an administration in line. Things have changed."

But that changed a long time ago. The press is very good now in figuring out what sells. And, frankly, what has sold for decades now is to back the administration until they get into real trouble and then turn on them. This was very noticeable under the previous administration and is no different now.
