Is anyone aware of any relatively evenhanded ongoing logs of Obama's major decisions and actions since taking office?

By evenhanded you mean objective? Open-minded? What bipartisan is SUPPOSED to mean?

I haven't seen one, but it would be a welcome thing. It's so refreshing to just listen and not have to decipher or watch out for hidden agendas.

I think Andrew Sullivan has a fairly even handed approach to Obama. He likes him, but is not afraid to criticize when appropriate and link to opposing viewpoints.

Thanks for mentioning Sullivan, geneg. I've never read him regularly, but will pay more attention for a while.

But ideally I'm hoping to find something less bloggy: more like a daily schedule, or a list of bulletpoints updated every few days or so. I guess I'm wishing to find a site that collects major press releases about what he signs, who he meets, etc, without having to rely on the White House's website or Change.gov. People do this kind of thing when they come up with 'first 50 days' or 'first 100 days' type lists. I was just hoping to come across some bi- or non-partisan source that makes such a list available, and adds to it on an ongoing basis, and I hoped somebody around here would've already found it.

Okay, found one. It's not exactly what I was looking for, but it's something.
