Little-known fact: Obama's failed stimulus program cost more than the Iraq war

* Obama's stimulus, passed in his first month in office, will cost more than the entire Iraq War -- more than $100 billion (15%) more.

* Just the first two years of Obama's stimulus cost more than the entire cost of the Iraq War under President Bush, or six years of that war.

Just some handy facts to recall during coming weeks as Obama and his congressional Democratic buddies get more desperate to put the blame for their spending policies on Bush and the war in Iraq.

Thema: Re: Washington Examiner:

Artful Dodger: Does the article include all the costs involved in Iraq, or are they just (as it seems) using the war related defence budget spending figures.

.. there is also the contractors costs, the cost of all the equipment the US Military want serviced, withdrawal costs

..etc,etc.
