Darfur was heading the right direction, we had coalition put together at the UN to send in (real) troops to protect the Christan minority from Muslim majority in Kartun, guarantees of land and air space for humanitarian relieve supplies.

Unfortunately a few Democrats in the Senate along with Republican Chaffee (who lost) have filibustered and convinced Josh Bolton to step down as (recess appointed) UN Ambassador.

Regardless of how you feel about Bolton he was making progress on Darfur,behind the scenes and on the security counsel, with out Bolton there it's going to be put back on the back burner, the new US Ambassador is going to have to start all over, and a lot of people are going to raped and murdered because of it.
