Many governors who said they would reject stimulus money, actually did not. They did accept most of it in one form or another.
They came out publicly boasting they would reject it, then later used the money, although that fact wasn't as publicized.
One example is Gov Jindal. He rejected stimulus money to expand unemployment insurance and to expand Medicaid for people who left welfare to work, to provide health care for the uninsured, and money that might be used for a high-speed rail, but he did accept stimulus money, one billion, which he used to bolster Louisiana's budget.
Ryan also requested and accepted stimulus money.
Can you find how much was given back? I'm not finding it right now. Maybe someone is a better searcher than I. It's a good question.
Oh, and I'm sure Congress made provisions for this circumstance, so what "Obama did with the stimulus money" is probably not the case, rather what the Government did with the money.
Didn't he and Michelle just take a vacation? - just kidding

Obama Stimulus Funds Went To California Feb 20, 2017The 2009 stimulus package funded millions of dollars for safety improvements for a dam in California that was in “good shape,” but not to the Oroville Dam that is now on the verge of a spillway crisis.
Nearly 200,000 residents north of Sacramento were ordered to evacuate after fears that erosion would cause the emergency spillway to fail, which would lead to “catastrophic flooding“ from a 30-foot wall of water.
Despite more than a decade of warnings about Oroville, there is no publ ...

Obama's Last Money Shower For The UN, SomeFeb 03, 2017In its last year in office, the Obama Administration showered at least some $9.2 billion on the United Nations and its sprawling array of organizations, according to a document recently posted on the State Department website.
The total is gleaned from a document that summarizes U.S. government spending for international organizations, and is about 20 per cent higher than the $7.7 billion figure given out by State for 2010, before the Obama Administration abruptly quit providing any overall ...

Judging Stimulus By Job Data Reveals SuccessFeb 17, 2010Imagine if, one year ago, Congress had passed a stimulus bill that really worked.
Let’s say this bill had started spending money within a matter of weeks and had rapidly helped the economy. Let’s also imagine it was large enough to have had a huge impact on jobs — employing something like two million people who would otherwise be unemployed right now.
If that had happened, what would the economy look like today?
Well, it would look almost exactly as it does now. Because thos ...

I just can't imagine how many are really out of work here. They stated we have 8,300 people out of work. That doesn't sound like much, but I think our county only has a population of 30,000, and most of them have had to leave the county to find jobs. ...

Men And MoneyJan 05, 2012As a single women nearing 50, and having MANY male friends, there is one observation that just MUST be made.
Men constantly complain that women are "only after (my) money," yet all of the men whom I know well who are even moderately "successful," whether married or single, have male friend(s) whom they fork money over to constantly. Usually these take the form of "loans" that are NEVER actually repaid.
