President Obama – “outraged” by an inspector general’s report detailing lavish spending by the government agency in charge of cutting costs – has fired the head of that agency, Martha Johnson, the now former administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration. Technically, White House officials, upon his order, sought her resignation, and she submitted it.Hmm, I thought Obama wasn't there. Guess he was.
The GSA helps to manage the basic functions of federal agencies, including by developing policies intended to minimize the cost of doing business with the federal government.
Despite that charge, GSA spent $835,000 on a Las Vegas Convention in 2010 for 300 employees, which included thousands of dollars spent on items such as a commemorative coin set, a mind reader, a comedian, and a clown.
Hope you enjoyed the way they spent your money.
