It's pretty obvious also that Obama's turn tail and run policy in Iraq guaranteed ISIL's ascendancy.

Yes I think that's already been determined.

No, actually the failed Arab spring in Syria pretty much did that. The vacuum was a large part of Syria that was ungoverned. Sound familiar.

That damned Hillary and her Iraq invasion.

 

[Arianrhod]

So Dubya's pet poodle finally grew a conscience. Can't wait to hear Dubya' comeback.

Why should we believe Tony Blair? He's just a socialist loving, America hating Euro-trash trying to help Hitlery get elected president.

Republicans can certainly make it all of that, and more.

 

[TNHarley]

Yep. So did pulling out.
Nonetheless, terrorism was in Abu Musabs veins...

Your analogy of Blair is wrong.

First off he's not a euro tard. He's a brit, and GB is not a part of Europe.Never has been and never will be, unless continental drift makes the place part of Europe in ten million years, or so.

In Obama's defense, they did try to unwind the Bush administrations version of how the war should end, but were unable to convince the Iranians that leaving American troops behind would be in their best interest. And with zero support from the people there was no incentive for Obama to force the issue. Damed if you do, damed if you don't.

I knew that!
I was emulating what a rabid far right winger would post. I guess my late night humor missed it's mark.

[ClosedCaption]

Of course it did, but the right wingers rule is to deny anything that can be attached to Republican Presidents except good things. Everything else is the fault of the guy either before or after him*.

*Unless that person is also a Republican then move ahead or behind one additional POTUS

It was her idea, too. She had all of the inside info on how bad Saddam was because, after all, she had been elected First Lady twice.
