Did you miss Iran-Contra ? Where President Reagan illegally sent arms for hostages? There was no congressional approval required for an illegal act. Ollie North became the poster boy for sending illegal arms to our enemies.
Not going to Baghdad in 91 was the commander and chiefs decision. Schwarzkof cited his disagreement, with Bush I's secretary of state Baker and the President, for not pressing on to baghdad. Congress did not enter into the decision making process because they don't make tactical decisions to be made by the president.
GWI was paid for by other countries so congress didn't even have the opportunity to pull funds.
That was a lame attempt to make excuses for republican Presidential acts. Acts that required no congressional approval because they were ILLEGAL.
