Who's line is it anyway?

Here's an interesting interview with Barro and Krugman in 2003 regarding Bush's fiscal stimulus plan. My uncharitable eyes have Barro 2003 being more consistent with the priorities of Barro 2009 than the Krugman versions, but on the pro/anti-stimulus front the combatants have flip-flopped. BTW, the most important fact about the economy bar none and don't listen to any idiots who claim otherwise, THE one and only interest rate was getting close to zero in January 2003.
