Really, you're talking out of both sides, there.  You're saying the deficit spending was critical for growth, but you're decrying it as squandering.

Which is it?  Can you truly demonstrate that it's squandering funds, as opposed to making investments in infrastructure that will yield higher growth in the future (and during a time of historically low interest rates)?  Or is that just the current rhetoric, that because it's a deficit, it's morally bad.
