How Many of Bush's Executive Orders will President Obama overturn in his first year in office?
Background: There has been much talk of President Obama overturning some of Bush's executive orders (e.g. stem cell research limitations). How many will President Obama overturn in his first year of office?
As of today, there are 279 orders made by Bush during his tenure: http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/orders/.
I've set this to suspend 2 weeks before Obama will have been in office for a year.
