The issue of why we went to Iraq is distinct from the issue of what we must do once we are entrenched in Iraq.
Why we went to Iraq is a Bush thing. The origins of Iraq was convoluted and confused, not unlike the origins of Vietnam. Bush owns that.
But once we were in there it's a different story. With Saddam removed, Iraq became another potential Taliban/Al-Qaeda/Islamo-terroist front. Obama owns what we do now in Irag.

Not sure how Bush can be blamed AFTER their proud announcement linked below, but I am sure the OMG will provide the usual cover for the most corrupt lying pResident of my 70+ year lifetime.
Joe Biden: Success In Iraq Is Obama Administrations Achievement
"On the Larry King Live show last week, Vice President Joe Biden took credit for the success in Iraq, stating that the United States involvement in the war-torn country "could be one of the great achievements of [the Obama] administration."

I do think we did not destroy these modern day Nazis as much as we should have during the Bush years.
But Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader this Caliphate movement was captured and held captive in the Bucca camp in Iraq during the Bush years.
Obama released him (and others) as soon as he could.
I don’t think the self absorbed chattering class know how important and dangerous this formation of a Caliphate state is.

Saddam was no threat to the USA and kept the various tribal and religious groups inline with the necessary force. Removing him from power was a mistake.
This is Bush's fault just like the ongoing open borders disaster.

I never understood the original push for war in Iraq, never understood the logic of regime change, Chafee said. These neocons [neo-conservatives] all through the 90s were talking the importance of regime change in Iraq and toppling Saddam Hussein, the strongman. I just didnt understand stirring up the hornets nest that is the Middle East. It just never made any sense to me, and now were seeing some of the ramifications of having deviated from our Cold War containment strategy. Would it have made more sense to continue the sanctions that had already killed at least 500,000 Iraqi children and teenagers?

Nation Building down the toilet. Too much money and lives lost in this cess pool. This falls into all of those suits and ties that created this mess. Both sides of the ailses are to blame.
