Yes Obama didn’t remove all the troops from Afghanistan and Iraq but he wants to. Only kept them to look like he is doing something. Obama is misguiding the public.
Not true. Obama has not only increased the size of active duty forces in the world but put MORE troops in Afghanistan than were called for even by John McCain. You mistake him for a peacenik. A better comparison is to a Woodrow Wilson or FDR who wants to maximize his power both at home and overseas. You seem to view Obama as someone who wants to abrogate his power in one area and maximize it in another. That is a contradiction. IMHO, he wants to maximize his power across the board.
