While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” with an official (WITH accounting gimmicks) annual Federal budget deficit standing at 1,413,000,000,000 “dollars,” Democratic (socialist/fascist) de facto President Obama (either a natural born subject of the United Kingdom enclave of Kenya, or a natural born resident of the republic of Hawaii) pledges to reduce that number by half (706,500,000,000 “dollars”) within three years.

       Postscript: Three years later the annual Federal budget deficit (WITHOUT accounting gimmicks) stood at 1,198,000,000,000 “dollars.”
