A foreign policy of "'red lines"?

Over the years, I supported US presidents on national security.   However, President Obama has crossed, and continues, to cross another "red line", or the Constitution.

As George Will wrote today, President Obama is talking us into war without a national security issue at stake:

"The administration now would do well to do something that the head of it has an irresistible urge not to do: Stop talking.   
If a fourth military intervention is coming, it will not be to decisively alter events, which we cannot do, in a nation vital to U.S. interests, which Syria is not. Rather, its purpose will be to rescue Obama from his words.""

Yes, stop talking and start explaining why this intervention is vital to the national interest.
