Z, You expect the President of the United States to use all of his political capital to move what ends up amounting to about half a percent of the federal budget? By declaring neutrality and making clear priorities with regard to foreign policy and the budget, the president will not need to use any political capital. He may even generate some thanks to the demonstration of leadership and backbone that is sorely lacking in this administration. In this way, he'll also successfully defang the GOP down to a bunch of whiny partisans. It's not like the GOP has much leadership themselves these days. Tenchusatsu
