War Room's tone suggests just the sort of head-scratching, we-gotcha-but-we're-stunned-at-the-irony attitude that indicates how little you understand the president. Look, it's very simple.

Whether it's warrantless spying, signing statements on torture bills, or the national anthem, there's one way for regular folks, and one way for the president. It's as simple as that.
