Bush signed the agreement setting the pullout date:

Big mistake.

Ooh wikipedia. Wow.

The Bush team did not pull out our forces.

Team Obama agreed to complete absence in its conclusion to the war.

That is incompetent.

Bush fought a competent war against Saddam Loyalists and more importantly our anti-american warriors here at Home.

"Bush signed the agreement setting the pullout date"

It's amazing how many Obama buttsniffers are here on FR. Bush's agreement was tentative, and it is highly unlikely he would have gone through with it given the conditions at the time of the deadline.

Obama’s went against Military Advice, see General Lloyd Austin.

Notice, we were scheduled to get out of Afghanistan but are saying there.

SOFA is not binding and some Iraqis indeed wanted us to stay. We sort of half-###ed the deal.
