Aides: Obama won't give credit to Bush for surge

In his Oval Office address on Iraq on Tuesday, President Obama plans to ignore Republican suggestions that he acknowledge a personal mistake and give credit to former President George W. Bush for executing the 2007 troop surge, according to two senior administration officials familiar with the speech.

Obama, then a senator, and other Democratic senators at the time opposed the surge.

. . . Senior administration officials say the president wants his Iraq address to be more forward-looking and thus is not planning to spend any time in the 15- to 20-minute speech looking backward at the divisive 2007 congressional debate over whether Bush should surge more troops into Iraq.
