"they spent some money on farm bills, medicare drug program, bridges to nowhere, etc."

Those too, but at least that money was sunk directly into this economy. Even the "bridge to nowhere" was for Americans, albeit a ridiculously few of them. The whole "bridge to nowhere" was just $315 million. 1/27th of what we blow in Iraq EVERY MONTH.
You could have almost have built the bridge to nowhere with what we blow in Iraq in a DAY.
