Megan Kelly had this on her show - nicely packaged for FB posts.

Bush and Prophetic within the same 7 words is like Iraq and alQaeda in the same span - remember that trick that lead to this mess in the first place? The troops had to leave under the timeline that guess who set up .... no Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) because the Iraqis rightly demanded the ability to prosecute US military and military contractors in their courts - this is a normal agreement anywhere we have troops stationed (see Germany, Japan, etc) Why? mainly because of the Blackwater slaughter of 17 civilians in Nisour Square. If you haven't heard of it don't be shocked - our media has mostly ignored it. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/16/us/politics/witnesses-testify-against-ex-blackwater-colleagues-in-case-of-2007-iraq-killings.html?_r=0
