So like the other stimulus bills put out by Bush and many other recent Presidents - but Obama's is bad, even though Bush did more? However unlike the others this one is making money back? Bad Bad Obama!

That's an opinion... I know lots of people very happy about this bill, including myself. I don't care how bad it appears, it's the first step that the Country needed and now that it's here, it will never be taken away.

Bush went to war with the Country of Afgan, killed people that weren't fighting us... Obama is fighting terrorists held up in another Country, using Afgan as a forced jumping Nation. Which is why we're trying so damn hard not to kill Afgans - we aren't at war with Afgan.
A global war on terrorism is pointless... When you know were a group is, it's not pointless.

Sucks... but it would have been renewed either way and as pointed out above, Obama didn't create and has created nothing like it.
