"I can report that, as promised, the rest of our troops in Iraq will come home by the end of the year," Obama said. "After nearly nine years, America's war in Iraq will be over." yeah, now he claims credit. guy worked his ass off trying to get them to let us stay. but no agreement reached because iraq wouldn't give our soldiers immunity from prosecution. so, obama touts a promise kept, while actually doing everything possible not to keep it!!

Geesh, what an unfair attack on Obama. He's just doing what we knew the end would probably be, from the negotiated agreements and ongoing negotiations, months ago. Just be happy the troops are home.

no, it's not unfair. obama fought tooth and nail to keep us over there. he failed, so he's still trying to spin this as a positive. had iraq agreed to immunity for our troops, they'd be staying. i'm glad they didn't agree! yes, i am happy the troops are coming home, they should never have been sent to begin with.

 You mean like when combat troops were supposed to all come home now per the Agreement, but Obama got combat troops out a year ago last August?And it seems unfair to say, "Obama fought tooth and nail to keep us over there", when (after he got combat troops out a year early) the Iraqi's wanted us to keep some troops there to train, but then wouldn't accomodate what the US demands were. Trying to work with Iraqi requests is "fought tooth and nail"? Geeshus - the guy announced, "The war is over". It is! That is exactly what any President would announce right now. Using it as an excuse to badmouth Obama and call this a failure (?!) is a pretty tacky attack.

Because the Iraqis requested us to, and only with a few thousand training troops ! "Obama and company wanted to stay" - except where he got 40,000 combat troops out a year early?Well, we can all be happy that's done.

 yes, we can only consider obama in a good light. sorry, i forgot that. although he and his administration were doing everything possible to stay, absolutely i give him sole credit for not doing so. he should have statues built in his honor for doing what was said would be done, regardless of what he really wanted.

And oh, yeah, there were lots of Republicans who wanted the direction to be after the terrorists in Afghanistan, too - until bin Laden was actually killed by this President. Mission accomplished. It's hilarious, watching the Obama-hating right twist itself into pretzels to attack a President of the United States for following a Bush Agreement and ending a war. The Republican party has become a ridiculous parody of its most crazy base members.

My personal opinion is that all the troops should have been gone years ago. I am not "defending" Obama for anything, I am pointing out the facts:Obama got 40,000 combat troops out a year before scheduled by Bush agreement the Iraqi's asked us to leave 4,000-5,000 troops as trainers 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?

We should not have pulled out of Iraq and moved into Afghanistan where the terrorists actually were? We should not have gone and tried to get bin Laden? When the Libyan resistance asked the US for help, we should not have gone to NATO for them, and gotten British and French troops to help them, instead of us, while we provided missles and drones and kept our troops out of it? Just trying to figure out your position.
