Oh comon, the last thing President Bush did in office
was send a "surge" into Afghanistan. When he left office, there were over 138,000 troops there. I don't know what you're basing your opinion that the approach was "surgical" on, but it seems that Obama quite literally is continuing exactly the same as Bush would have done.
Anyway, outside of Afghanistan, what changes have Obama made?
