He's the one who is responsible and culpable for our withdrawal.

More importantly, he's the one who's responsible and culpable for the catastrophic decision to invade and occupy in the first place.

Bush was president with the TARP was passed. That was the big business/too big to fail bank and insurance bailout.

Obama passed a stimulus bill, which directly went to the people.
