From a CNN interview referenced by rawstory.com:
“If you want to go way back, we can look at the troop surge. And after 2007, al Qaeda was essentially in ashes,” she explained. “It was Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton who then destroyed the entire rollout by wanting to pull out early, announcing their plans, ignoring intelligence and that’s the reason why ISIS is a global issue and not a –”
Blackwell then interrupted her, “Barack Obama in 2004, is that what you said?”
“No,” she replied. “I said afterwards. After the surge when al Qaeda was in ashes. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton — remember we weren’t even in Afghanistan by this time. Barack Obama went into Afghanistan creating another problem. It was Hillary Clinton and her incidents in Libya. They armed the rebels and funded them.”
A puzzled Blackwell then stopped Pierson again.
“You’re saying Barack Obama took the country into Afghanistan post-2009. Is that what you’re saying?”
Pierson paused before replying, “Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton — that was Obama’s war, yes.”
Well that wasn't very smart.

Obama knew that by then it was his war. He had actually said as much and a SoS owns any war the country is in, when she joins but doesn't end. Of course, contrary to Obama 2007 was earlier than she had taken possession
I saw her on CNN several days ago where she made a complete fool of her self and literally could not debate outside of her talking points, which fell apart leaving her nothing to discuss. It was pretty pitiful. So much for Trump surrounding himself with the best people.From a CNN interview referenced by rawstory.com:

This is what happens when a PR stunt turns into a Presidential run.
No, but there were two recent incidents I've seen of her during the last week on CNN.Was that when she was saying that Obama and Clinton were responsible for Captain Khan's death (in 2004)?

ISIS was created by George Bush when he didn't have troop surge right away and make the Iraqis behave before rendering them any oil revenue.
Then the Arab spring Nations would have a nice Democracy to follow.

He can't even a point competent people to his campaign. Why do we assume this will change if he becomes President?
Katrina Pierson is a real piece of work. She collected unemployment - while working for Ted Cruz.

What?

What? What do you mean what? You don't give them back their oil, you say, "Behave, if so many killings, attacks against our Troops then no oil revenue, we use revenue to pay for war. Then Iraqi leaders have incentive to get things in order, to find solutions.
It was not a mistake to start war, this was just a mistake along the way.
Soon we will have Hillary Clinton who voted for the war instead of Obama who thinks the war was a mistake.
It was also a mistake to cite weapons of mass destruction in their prosecution of the war, instead you prosecute on non-compliance and humanitarian reasons. Then you don't have to worry about looking like an ass when they don't find any WMDs.
He appointed a Conservative Christian for his VP.
Iraq had WMDs though.....
The idea that George Bush created ISIS is ridiculous.
Bush did not create anything, God created him.
No more ridiculous than Obama.
Obama would never intend for Arab spring where our allies like the Egyptian dictator are deposed and dangerous conditions leave events like Benghazi to follow in the wake of 9-11 that we blame on Bush.
It's too early in the morning to play this game. I'm done.
