The Christians have been fleeing Iraq for three years. The refugee crisis - a million or more Iraqis fleeing the chaos - is several years old; it didn't start with the Democrats taking Congress. The blame lies with Bush and Rumsfeld. they were warned by US generals that we would need hundreds of thousands of US troops to keep order after Saddam was toppled. They didn't listen. they sent too few troops. they were arrogant and stupid. Sorry, but not every stupid act can be blamed on Democrats.
I don't disagree that mistakes were made and miscalculations have proven costly. You can say the same thing about most wars or conflicts throughout history. It's the nature of the beast.
My comments were simply frustration that there are thousands of Iraqi's over there who have openly assisted the coalition (for a variety of motives including trying to make their country better) who will be abandoned to death/torture if the dems get their way.
We started the mess and we should finish it. It's the only honorable thing to do and it will avoid the domino effect in moderate muslim nations that are at risk.
We can finish it now and show we are a nation that backs up it's promises or we can leave and show the world we are cowards.
The Iraqi Christians are not the only people we condemn to death by taking the cowards way out.
