Why didn't the MSM ever break down spending bills under the Bush Administration?

I just saw a segment of them running through different programs and projects that will get stimulus money. Why didn't ever break down or track any of Bush's spending bills including the billions that have been unaccounted for in Iraq and Afghanistan.

We are seeing the media's truly hypocritical colors. They cover the Obama Administration with such scrutiny, but gave Bush a free pass with all his bills.
