Haiti and Iraq are apples and oranges. They don't really stand up to comparison.
Haiti is in our own back yard (Monroe doctrine), and we should not hesitate to intervene if it becomes necessary. I haven't been following the story closely, so I'm not in a position to judge. So far, all we've seen is the mobilization of marines to protect the embassy, which is a very conservative and standard move. It allows headlines like "Marines Sent to Haiti," yet isn't really a military intervention.
Like I said, I don't know enough about it to say either way.
