He says this at the same time he is seeking new war powers. Begs the question as to who he intends to wage war on.

A 29 page straw man fallacy, and these morons who cover him will think it profound.

“resources and influence are not infinite.” Wow, he’s soooo smart! Gosh, everyone else was walking around thinking those things were infinite, until Barry came along and set them straight.

“But we have to make hard choices among many competing priorities,” he said, “and we must always resist the over-reach that comes when we make decisions based upon fear.”

Again, this is profound stuff! I always thought the choices were really easy, and that over-reach should never be resisted. All decisions were previously based upon fear (he doesn’t give any examples), but now we’re going to base them on ........ he doesn’t really say, does he? Nuanced!

“The United States will always defend our interests and uphold our commitments to allies and partners,”

Promise? Because the fact that he feels the need to say this part indicates a degree of doubt.

"Begs the question as to who he intends to wage war on."

That would be you and me!

As far as Obama is concerned anything other that surrender is overreach.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Then, drop the war powers request. It’s hard to think of anyone I’d trust less with War Powers in the MidEast (or anywhere else) than Obama.

Also, if you want to cut down on the over-reach, stay out of the Ukraine, and stop teasing Puty.

Fine, let’s concentrate on removing internal national threats at home, starting with the muslims and communists.

Yeah.

"Overreach abroad" is distracting him from overreaching at home. It has to stop.

Of course he wants strategic patience. Right now, Al Baghdadi is injured and cannot continue being caliph.
