I know Kerry has said this is the wrong time to pull out of Korea because it sends the wrong message, but I think a bigger chess game is being played here. By pulling out, perhaps it forces SK, Russia and China to deal more seriously and directly with the NK issue.
And by pulling out of Europe, it forces the EU to build up troops, thereby increasing the number of troops available for Nato.

I was impressed by what Steve Clemons said here and here. He agrees that some reployment is advisable, but disagrees with the way Bush is doing it.
