This is so interesting.  Would also be interesting to know the political party of POTUS and the make up of House & Senate at the time. 

 
Obama had the most executive orders in recent history.


No he didn't. You're either wrong or you're lying.

I said recent history


You're still either wrong or lying. Obama has the fewest executive orders of all modern/recent Presidents all the way back to 1963, with the exceptions of Ford and H. W. Bush, who both only served one term but averaged far more per year than Obama did.

Stop lying. Stop being wrong. Do better.

 
Let's start a common sense forum. Half of you wouldn't be allowed in. You let your education and hubris get in the way. Remove yourself from your protective bubbles and come out to the middle of the state and see how we see things differently out here. On the other hand stay in the city and keep congraulating each other. Because I don't have time to post links to verify everything I type doesn't mean they aren't valid points.

You could've just said what you meant by recent history because your claim doesn't match the data provided.

Part of common sense is being able to look at one number, and notice how it's lower than a whole bunch of other numbers around it. A random number like, idk, the number of executive orders signed by Obama vs other Presidents.

You're the one lacking in common sense by still not realizing or not admitting that you said and believed something completely wrong.

This is amazing. You post straight up lies, you tell us you are too busy to use facts, and you tell us that our education gets in the way? While talking about common sense? Do you consider this to be a reasonable debating tactic?
