The only one I remember that was accomplished was the release of the White House beer recipe.
My favorite was the request to build the Death Star.
"The Administration shares your desire for job creation and a strong national defense, but a Death Star isn't on the horizon. Here are a few reasons:
• The construction of the Death Star has been estimated to cost more than $850,000,000,000,000,000. We're working hard to reduce the deficit, not expand it.
• The Administration does not support blowing up planets.
• Why would we spend countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship?
However, look carefully (here's how) and you'll notice something already floating in the sky -- that's no Moon, it's a Space Station!"
Emphasis on the more than. Global gdp is 8.5 10^13. That means the entire gdp of the world(at our current level, for at least 10 thousand years couldn't build a death star.
What if we ~~legalized slavery~~ outsourced labour to a slave market
You could turn humans into rocket fuel and you still wouldn't have enough reaction mass.

How much choice metal does it take to build a moon?
