I know you have this great desire to re-write history but it is out there.
You being the colossal douche bag that you are, it pains me greatly to admit this. You are right, the status of forces agreement was negotiated and signed by Bush.
I do however, have an excuse. Obama did pledge to end the war in Iraq and then claimed he fulfilled that pledge. If anyone was attempting to re-write history...it was him....and I was duped by him.
Quote:"Operation Iraqi Freedom is over, and the Iraqi people now have lead responsibility for the security of their country," Obama said in a televised Oval Office address on Aug. 31, 2010. "This was my pledge to the American people as a candidate for this office."

"Today, I can report that, as promised, the rest of our troops in Iraq will come home by the end of the year," Obama said at the White House. "Our troops will definitely be home for the holidays."

Now it seems, the democunts like you, after taking credit for ending the war in Iraq...are now blaming Bush for ending it prematurely.
