The Democrats' Iraq War dishonesty

Back in 2007,  many Democrats were calling for a withdrawal from Iraq.  They did it by playing both sides of the issue.   It was very dangerous talk, as we learned after President Obama withdrew the troops from Iraq in 2011.

Go back and read this from CNN's Michael Ware:
"Well, even more than that, if you just wanted to look at it purely in terms of American national interest, if U.S. troops leave now, you’re giving Iraq to Iran, a member of President Bush’s ‘Axis of Evil,’ and al Qaeda.
That’s who will own it.
And so, coming back now, I’m struck by the nature of the debate on Capitol Hill, how delusional it is.
Whether you’re for this war, or against it; whether you’ve supported the way it’s been executed, or not; it doesn’t matter.
You’ve broke it, you’ve got to fix it now. You can’t leave, or it’s going to come and blow back on America."
We knew what it would happen following a premature withdrawal.   And it did happen!
