That's completely false. Organizations like AQ and ISIL are never going away, no matter who is POTUS.
The challenge that faced Obama was to manage the Iraq situation that Bush created. Obama has failed to do that, as he has failed in other areas.
If Obama did not care to competently manage US foreign policy, he should not have run for POTUS. Of course it serves his political interests to Blame Bush Forever. Those folks who possess the capacity for logical and objective reasoning know that blaming Bush in 2014 is not persuasive. Bush's connection to Mid East events is attenuated at this point.
You and your fellow travelers will Blame Bush forever because it's a useful weapon to use against your political opponents. It's no longer persuasive.

For Iraq...given that he invaded them for no other reason other then he felt like kicking some arse.
Yeah...I will blame him for everything that goes on in that shite hole of a country because he is to blame.
His post 9/11 policy certainly hamstrung Obama (who frankly didn't need the help fricking up in international affairs) and it will continue to hamstring the next president.
But hey, stick to your narrative.

This seemed almost inevitable to me from the beginning. The only thing to do was establish a temporary peace and gtfo.
That's what we did. I am only disappointed that we are going back in.
