"you have selective memory" Western Man has 3 calendars, if you forget about the Julian.. BC, from the Big Bang to the birth of LBJ AD, from Xmas 0000 -> 1/20/08 AO, from the inauguration of BO thru until when the world ended in a cosmic explosion called "Obamacare". We are currently in a period in which we no longer exist to record time., but are mere electrons stored on God's flash memory drive. There are those who argue AO begins August 4, 1961, in a manger in Kenya. It has been pointed out elsewhere, however, that this would mean St. Ronald of Hollywood took office in the middle of AO 19, so clearly those years have to belong to LBJ.

Actually the stimulus started way before 2009. Remember the cash checks that Bush sent out? So, let's talk numbers Steve - How much did the 2008 (different year) Bush checks cost and how much did the "complicated" Obama stimulus failure cost? WHO signed the failed Obama stimulus - did Bush sign it? No. So Steve, the answer is....drum roll please.....Obama was responsible for the size of 2009 spending. His massive stimulus failure has his signature on the document! It is very understandable why you don't want Obama to own that failure, to own his failure.
