That doesn't even track.

1) There's no truth to the statement at all.
2) Even if there were, why would that anger "the left?"

Absolutely there is truth. He created the vacuum that allowed ISIS to emerge and grow. It was actually predicted that a scenario like this would happen when he pulled all our troops.
And, if you can’t figure out why this would anger the left, you are clueless.

How did pulling troops from Iraq create a vacuum in Syria?

Besides, before you start prattling on about vacuums and pulling troops, I think you need to look back a few years earlier and examine the policies of a different administration that for the first time in our country's history acted as the aggressor by starting a war under false pretenses. THAT was the destabilizing act. If you're going to lay ISIS at the feet of a president, it's Bush's fault.

We ran guns to Syrian rebels, who were, in fact, ISIS. Remember Benghazi?

The Syria rebels that we support are not ISIS. Some of the rebels are al-Qaida and we are in fact supporting those rebels today. ISIS was able to obtain weapons we supplied to other groups via various means (capturing, buying, etc.), but we didn't intentionally supply weapons to ISIS.

OK then

And there were no sexual assaults in Idaho.

I already know the lengths you go to, the names you call, and the way you twist and turn things to suit your views. I know any time you respond to someone's thread, it's because you know it's the truth and you need to quickly bury it.

...you realize Benghazi is in Libya, not Syria, right?

You don't change your mind about something that can be factual checked. It's not an opinion, either President Obama is the founder or he isn't. Oh and for the slow group, he isn't.

Actually, I am not trying to bury the truth, but make sure that people are aware of it. Is there any reason why you are reacting in such a manner to having facts stated correctly? That seems sort of extreme.
