Proclamations of the King
I guess I must be living on another planet than Vice-
President Richard Cheney because the number of Executive
Orders or "Proclamations of the King" as I prefer to call
them seems to have increased over the recent years. To
date, President Bush has made 56 of these proclamations in
just over a years time, everything from designating
Afghanistan as a combat zone to the Presidents Council on
the 21st Century Workforce. So he is currently on pace for
a number around 224 over a 4 year period.
President Clinton made 364 over his years in office.
George Bush made 166.
Ronald Reagan made 381.
Jimmy Carter made 320.
Gerald Ford made 169.
Richard Nixon made 346.
LBJ made 324.
JFK made 214.
Dwight D. Eisenhower made 486.
Harry Truman made 896.
FDR made 3728.
Herbert Hoover made 1011.

While it does appear that the number of EO's has decreased
since the days of Truman, I would suggest that so many has
been made already that the need for even more surely must be
nearing it's limit.
But no. It is easily discerned by our VP's line of thinking
that even more government control, especially by the
Executive Branch is needed to control the people.
I strongly disagree.
As Reported by Robert Novak at townhall.com, Jan 26, 2002:
Ardent right-wingers who attend the annual Conservative
Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington Thursday
through Saturday will not hear from Vice President Dick
Cheney or Attorney General John Ashcroft. Both were listed
as speakers in CPAC's advertisements, but neither will come.
....<snip>...
Vice President Dick Cheney, usually silent at the weekly
luncheons of Republican senators, spoke up last Wednesday to
plea with them not to criticize his refusal to make public
the secret records of his energy task force. Requesting time
at the luncheon to say a few words, Cheney said he had in
the course of his long government career seen a steady
deterioration of presidential power. (emphasis mine)That's
why he was so determined to fight congressional demands
regarding the task force.
