MSNBC’s Roberts: Bush Still to Blame for Iraq Turmoil
‘Pulling our troops out of Iraq in 2012 and, you say, creating a vacuum never would have happened if we didn’t invade in the first place’
MSNBC's Roberts: Bush Still to Blame for Iraq Turmoil (NewsBusters)
Thomas Roberts didn’t stray an inch away from the liberal media narrative about conservative difficulties with Iraq War questions. On the May 20 edition of MSNBC Live, the host interviewed potential 2016 candidate and former New York governor George Pataki on the subject.
He led off by seeking Pataki’s opinion on what the Republican platform on Iraq should look like in 2016 and if invading Iraq “was a mistake.” Pataki wisely pointed to Hillary Clinton, imploring the media to ask if she and the president “made the right decision in 2012 when we decided to pull every last troop out of Iraq and create this vacuum.”
