"Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush Totaled 672 Executive Orders. Obama has 182. Boehner's Lawsuit Is Frivolous "



LOL!! Great statistic for the "Low Information Types". Here lets compare the totals of 2 COMPLETE TERM PRESIDENTS, and compare that number against a single 1 1/2 TERM PRESIDENT...

A more fair comparison would be Bill Clinton and Obama which have issued a total of 544 to date.. And we still have another 2 1/2 years to go.

Many of Bush's Executive Orders had to do with our War on Terrorism after 9/11. Establishing Homeland Security,etc.

Versus, Obama's First Executive order, drafted only days after being sworn in, with the promise of providing "The most Transparent Administration in History". Dealt with the Increase in Presidential power to invoke "Executive Privilege" over Presidential Records.
