Related: About this forumSnopes: President Obama's Executive Orders
There's a new rumour going around e-mail and facebook regarding 923 Executive Orders supposedly signed by Pres. Obama, including some with very frightening conditions. Of course, it's all bullshit.
President Obama's Executive Orders
The orders in question date back to the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations, and no orders resembling the ones in the list have ever been signed.
