QUESTION: Do you need Congresss approval to go into Syria? OBAMA: You know, I have consulted with Congress throughout this process. I am confident that as commander in chief I have the authorities to engage in the acts that we are conducting currently. As our strategy develops, we will continue to consult with Congress, and I do think that itll be important for Congress to weigh in and were -- that our consultations with Congress continue to develop so that the American people are part of the debate. But I dont want to put the cart before the horse. We dont have a strategy yet. I think what Ive seen in some of the news reports suggests that folks are getting a little further ahead of where were at than we currently are.
