All I remember was him saying during his campaign he would be bringing troops from the middle east home within 60 days. I don't ever remember him saying I will be sending more troops to Afghanistan. Sorry, just done remember him telling Americans during the election that he would be sending more troops over. Guess I got my geography mixed up. I thought both Iraq and Afghanistan were in the middle east.
