Iraq was largely stabilized by the time Bush left office.
Obama wanted to get out of there so badly, that he either didn't care, or didn't realize the consequences of announcing a timetable for withdrawal, and his not even half hearted attempt to get a SOFA with Maliki.
What we see now is the result of that.
And I think Obama really has no problem with that. I believe he wants to lessen the US presence and influence on the world stage, and turn it inward, to focus primarily on domestic issues.
