department parties. nobody has partied like the general services administration since they stopped snorting meth off the toaster ovens. the gsa seemed to have something wrong with it for some time. this conference that they got busted for this year. politico is reporting ha spending went up by 102%. the investigation that led to all of these resignations started a year ago. the chief of the agency has now resigned and apologized. the guy that was running the conference is pleadsing the fifth. he didn't know up at a house hearing he's pleading the fifth. possible silver lining, at a time when we think of everything as fodder and political one upmanship. the idiotic spending scandal at the gsa is something which everybody in washington agrees. in this case the republican perspective is brought by jeff denham.
