Case in point is Obama with the War Powers Act. The War Powers Act says reads...



It does not say "the President needs approval from Congress".

When Bush was in office Obama said the President does not have the right to engage in military action without approval from Congress, when clearly he did. Now that Obama is office he's changed his tune.

It's no longer about what's right or wrong. Instead, they twist the laws to attack each other. We used to have this concept that you support whomever is in office no matter what unless it's drastic - drastic as in about to be impeached - but now we just bash whomever publically.
