Hillary Clinton suggested Tuesday that President Barack Obama bears no responsibility for his decision to pull American troops out of Iraq at the end of 2011, a decision that created a power vacuum now filled by a vicious Islamist terror group.
'In retrospect, that was a mistake by the Iraqi government,' she said during a town hall on CNN.
Clinton was referring to the two governments' failure to sign a mutual Status of Forces Agreement, a document that would have kept American servicemen and women in Iraq as a stabilizing force after 2011.
Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki reportedly balked on a U.S. proposal because it would have included legal immunity for American troops who broke local laws.

Why is it that every time I see a headline starting with "Hillary Says..." I stop reading and go to the next article?
Maybe sh should consider writing a book. Then I could ignore everything she has to say all at once!
