Yes, he can take credit for getting us completely out of Iraq. If he gets credit for the benefits involved with pulling us completely out of Iraq (fewer Americans killed, less money spent, etc), does he therefore not deserve responsibility for the negative consequences of pulling us completely out of Iraq, such as the birth of ISIS? Again, you (like he himself) give him credit for all th egood things, but ignore the bad things. Unbelievable.

Nebe, I have news for you. We are going back into Iraq in a big way. Not before this idiot is out of office, but sometime after. And every single drop of blood that is spilled in the campaign to rid the world of ISIS, is on his hands, because there was no ability for ISIS to take root in Iraq when Obama took office. They were decimated. Obama created the vaccuum that allowed them to get going, and then he completely blew the analysis of their potential threat when he called them the JV and did nothing to stop them.

When Obama took office, Iraq was stable, and had free, successful elections, in which the candidates representing the most extreme factoins of Islam were defeated. That's what he inherited. Now it's a disaster.
