Conversely the current administration allows criticism but is not following the other lines.

You have got to be kiddling me! Have you ever heard of something called the "Fairness Doctrine". Go ahead and google it - the current administration has been making noises about trying to bring it back in order to squash condervative talk radio, And the main stream media is in Obama's hip pocket - NBC, MSNBC and CNBC are owned my GE - they are definitely not going to criticize this administration. The current administration is taking over banksm car companies, and insurance companies.
