Who to blame, when Obama insists on being Obama? ‘W’…of course

When even the respected Andy McCarthy joins the ‘blame Bush’ crowd, it’s on!

Writing in National Review, he reminds all that it was then-President Bush who signed a Status of Forces Agreement (SoFA) with Iraq, setting U.S. troop withdrawal timelines.

But key to that fact is timing…it was just weeks before Obama assumed the office. Is there any doubt that ‘W’ kept his soon-to-be successor in the loop, encouraging input?

And it’s odd that Mr. McCarthy ignores the 800-lb gorilla in the room: Obama has no problem breaking or ignoring every law he doesn’t like…but meekly follows W’s SoFA?

The SoFA agreement put in place just before Obama took office was, as McCarthy puts it “…the best deal he (W) could get in an Islamist country that despises America”.

We would add “…and was the deal the incoming president agreed to, and probably demanded.” But of course, this current Teflon president would never admit to that.

Obama had 5-1/2 years to make a better deal, as conditions on the ground dictated; conditions, we might add, that weren’t escalating like this at the time ‘W’ left office.

So, enough with the Bush-bashing, Republicans. Democrats do that relentlessly…

…they don’t need your help.

(Besides incompetence) there’s one, and only one, HUGE reason an otherwise lawless Obama chooses to ‘lead from behind’ on certain issues, such as his Iraq travesty…

…so he can blame EVERYONE but himself.

The media won’t point it out; Democrat’s sure as hell won’t…but Republicans should.
