Many of the over 900 Executive Orders give the President control over EVERY aspect of our lives (power, water, transportation, communications, energy, etc.) and set it up so that pesky Congress won't be needed to take control. If you rely on the liberal media for your information you probably aren't aware of what he's quietly doing.

A quick Google search turns up some very different information. Here's a link to the Federal Register section of the National Archives:

http://www.archives.gov/federal-regi...sposition.html

It shows that through August 10, 2012, Obama has signed 135 Executive Orders, broken down as follows:

2009 - 39
2010 - 35
2011 - 34
2012 - 27 (through 8/10/2012)

I doubt that he has signed an additional 788 Executive Orders between August 10th and today, buy maybe you know something that I don't.

Here is how Obama compares to past presidents for numbers of Executive Orders signed (again, according to the National Archives link above):

Obama - 135
G.W. Bush - 291
Clinton - 364
G.H.W. Bush - 166
Reagan - 381
Carter - 320
Ford - 169
Nixon - 346
Johnson - 324
Kennedy - 214
Eisenhower - 482
Truman - 894
F.D. Roosevelt - 3,467
Hoover - 996

If the number of Executive Orders signed is indeed an indication that the president is taking control over every aspect of our lives, than we're too late, because that happened over 70 years ago with FDR.

I'm not trying to argue for the political left or the political right; I'm trying to argue that you shouldn't accept every "fact," especially the ones that are being used to push a political agenda, without doing your own research first. The truth is out there, folks, and most of the time it's not too hard to find.
