Most of these are relatively minor executive actions. His really big stuff, with the exception of the tax cut, has been all liberal. And a tax cut without concurrent spending cuts is no bargain since we just pay for the expanding government through borrowing, higher interest rates, etc.

Here's a list:

(1) Education Bill that greatly expands the scope of federal intervention and funding (enabling even greater liberal indoctrination at the earliest ages).;

(2) Budget that increases the size of government greater than the rate of inflation, even factoring out increased defense spending;

(3) Steel tariffs of 30 percent which lower the standard of living, depress the economy and ruin our credibility as a global trade partner;

(4) Probable signing of an amnesty for illegal aliens;

(5) Probable signing of Campaign Finance Reform.

In terms of meaningfulness, the list of 77 pales in comparison with this list of 5.

Sad grim world you live in. The Democrats have been in charge of the congress for 25 years. Wonder why all that liberal stuff happened? Bush has been in office less than a year and has dem obstructionists to make his life difficult. The Constitution as been in trouble for years and now it's GW's fault.
