>>> Bush'd $700B was a drop in the bucket compared to what Obanker threw in

I think the Bush portion was less than 700B; that's was the total of the two tranches.

While I thought the 700B was a bad idea at the time, in retrospect I do believe it was the right thing to have done. I wouldn't want to make a habit of it, though.
