I've been getting the feeling that the President is doing lots and lots of things, to the point where I can't remember all of them. I agree with most of them (the costs are beginning to worry me, though), but I would like to have a better grasp of whats going on. So, I made myself this little chart,based solely on the 'Obama' references in a Google news scooper. It's just the items where they say 'the administration is doing this', not actions by individuals in the administration, or other people. I know its incomplete, but hey....
