We're on a comments board; I'm not writing a dissertation here.  The exact date of the end of Obama's term was inconsequential to my remark, and, btw, I intentionally said 2016 because once the new President has been elected, that's pretty much the end of the previous term, and that's how people generally think about it.  So you were wrong in accessing my thoughtfulness; you just hadn't considered all of my possible intentions in making the remark and assumed I was just shooting off at the mouth.

Think what you want of the $400 million; we both know the counterargument.
