Now today, he thinks he knows more about Afghanistan than the Generals and other military officers on the ground.
From The Guardian: Barack Obama is set to reject the advice of the Pentagon by announcing on Wednesday night the withdrawal of up to 30,000 troops from Afghanistan by November next year, in time for the US presidential election.
The move comes despite warnings from his military commanders that recent security gains are fragile. They have been urging him to keep troop numbers high until 2013.
The accelerated drawdown will dismay American and British commanders in Kabul, who have privately expressed concern that the White House is now being driven by political rather than military imperatives.
"This is not something we feel entirely comfortable with," a Whitehall official told the Guardian.

I'm so glad we have such a brilliant mind running our military and the wars in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Libya and Yemen. After all, Obama, must be the the most brilliant mind out there with all of his experience in the military and real life experience. (sarcasm)
Maybe Obama thinks he is a great military mind since this Obama SEAL doll came onto the market:
Worst president ever.
