Obama tried to work with the Iraqi's on that
Iraqi's wouldn't protect Americans
Obama said no those 4,00-5,000 trainers will not be there.

Geesh, how in the hell is the above, "Obama and his administration trying to stay in Iraq" ???? With no combat troops?

because they would have stayed had iraq agreed. we wanted to stay! why do you not get that? iraq wouldn't agree to our demand for immunity for our troops, so they aren't staying. had iraq said fine to that, we'd have people there still. for who knows how long.
like i said above, i'm glad they're all leaving. however, i think it's disingenuous of obama to put this as a big deal by him and his team, when in fact he was trying NOT to keep that promise.
but hey, obviously obama and co don't see it that way. more power to him and his fans.
