Wasn't Iraq a sovereign nation at the time we withdrew? Did they ask for us to leave more troops, and how much were they going to pay us for them?

Yeah, so why did Obama say time and time again the "he" of course he used the word "I" got us out of Iraq time and time again. You my man need God.

That statement is inoperative, because Obama HIMSELF took personal credit for ending the war in Iraq by pulling out. He did this many times.

So, was he lying then or is he lying now?

So it was Iraq that gave Obama his policy of withdrawing the troops? Hmmmm okay thanks for clearing that up.

So then am I to take that as Obama is still lying when he said it was Bush's decision? I mean since it was Iraq's policy and all.

How much did the Military Equipment that is now in the control of ISIS cost?
How much is it going to cost to take it out? Decisions have consequences.

Making political decisions is not the way to end a war vs Islamic Terrorists.

Just as sovereign as when we invaded.
