I'm not saying it should be spent faster. I'm using that blog post to point out how even if one thinks a stimulus is what's needed, the reality is that spending that much additional money takes a long time and so can't provide for a timely stimulus. If a large stimulus is really wanted, tax cuts (with an immediate reduction in withholding) would seem to be a better way to go, or perhaps just drop the idea that you can fine tune the economy with fiscal policy.
