Obama is trying to claim credit for the troop drawdown, and the media is playing right along.

Except that Petraeus planned this drawdown way back in 2007, when they were dissing him. I, and practically every other non-left wing blogger knew that they were going to do this. Well, we have the miracle of the internet. The record clearly shows that they wanted to abandon Iraq to genocide every step of the way, and it was only by fighting against the Dem’s attempts to lose Iraq that we have the success today that allows troop withdrawals in victory.
