The absurdity here is ISIS was founded roughly a decade before Obama took office. It was legitimized in the eyes of radicals by the support of Ba'athist party members displaced by Bush 3-4 years before Obama took office. And it transitioned from JV to V while being combated by a military command put in place under Bush that is still there today.

So, obviously, that's Obama.



I guess if you're going to fault him you could point to not dismantling Bush's military command mid-way through the quagmire.
