First, a word of caution: there are internet rumors that President Obama has signed more executive orders than any president in history (false), declared martial law (false), or signed 900 executive orders (false).

The number signed during a four-year term will vary: George H.W. Bush signed 166 of them during his four years in office; Bill Clinton signed 144 of them; George W. Bush signed 171 of them.
