Obama's chemical weapons deal example of Constitutional constraint at its best

Deal on Syria's Chemical Weapons Comes Back to Haunt Obama is a poor headline for a Constitution loving  journal. The line in the sand drawn for Bashar al-Assad use of chemical weapons reached the best resolution possible because Obama asked for war powers from Congress before acting and having failed to get them  managed a Russian intervention to take them away. It should be considered a diplomatic coup and example of Constitutional constraint getting the best result possible.
