Rand Paul does not blame Obama for Iraq crisis

I don't know what you mean by "blame"....but the consequences of Obama's policy of no Status of Forces Agreement is clearly on Obama and no one else. In 2011, Iraq was stable. Obama didn't want to leave troops behind (might be a correct decision); but the resulting consequences of not leaving military in country is squarely on Obama. The current ISIS takeover can be blamed on Obama - NOT Bush !

When asked back in January 2014 about ISIS taking over Fallujah and flying the Al Qaeda flag, Obama responded, by dismissing ISIS has a non threat:

“The analogy we use around here sometimes, and I think is accurate, is if a jayvee team puts on Lakers uniforms that doesn’t make them Kobe Bryant,”

Obama has been wrong on almost all issues; the Iraq fall is one of the many consequences. Originally Posted by Whirlaway

The lack of legal immunity?????????????????

You are the only one chriping that bullshit.........

Obama is on record saying he didn't want a Status of Forces Agreement.

From the 2012 Presidential Debate against Romney:

"With regards to Iraq, you and I agreed, I believe, that there should be a status of forces agreement," Romney told Obama as the two convened on the Lynn University campus in Boca Raton, Fla., that October evening. "That’s not true," Obama interjected. “Oh, you didn't want a status of forces agreement?” Romney asked as an argument ensued. “No,” Obama said. “What I would not have done is left 10,000 troops in Iraq that would tie us down. That certainly would not help us in the Middle East.”

Even liberals are blaming Obama about whats happening in Iraq.

The fucking gall. How about blame along the lines of none of this ever would have happened but for GOP presidential policy in relation to Iraq from the years 2003 through 2008? Fucking idiot.

Yeah, great idea.....we could be fighting ISIS now and incurring additional KIA/WIA. For what?

Good fucking plan.

We need to cut those people loose. We never should have been there, we shouldn't be there now and we shouldn't be there in the future. Is that not painfully fucking obvious to even the most conservative fucking idiot on here?

Yep, let it burn. If the Sunni and Shia want to kill each other then let them. No way we should get in the middle of that.

Your premise is as faulty and full of holes as your pappy's condom, Ekim the Inbred Chimp. Your contention that Odumbo couldn't work out a SOFA agreement if he'd made a genuine effort or that any U.S. troops left in Iraq would automatically be subject to Iraqi justice is complete and utter BS, Ekim the Inbred Chimp.

The second we leave Afghanistan, the same thing is going to happen. Western ideas of free thought, free expression, and freedom period does not work over there.
It's that whole "Muslim Thing".

Oh yeah, and Bush wouldn't have gone to war in Iraq if the Democratic leadership didn't perpetuate the lie that Iraq had WMDs. And add that Bush wouldn't have gone to war in Iraq without the support of Democrats in the Senate.

You are a fucking idiot thinking this started with Bush!


But make no mistake - Bush left Iraq as a stable state; so much so that Obama was claiming Iraq to be one of their crowning achievements. Obama didn't want a SOFA and pulled out; the rest is history. What is happening in Iraq and the middle east is the direct result of a combination of failed Obama policies in that region.
