The GSA Administrator Lurita Alexis Doan is going to be sworn in
before the House Oversight Committee in a few minutes.

She has charge of over $56bn in the scandal ridden GSA and is coming up on one year as Administrator.

She is corrupt.

3. Isn't she the one who used her office to help elected GOPers?
This ought to be good.

7. I learned that Doan's friend, Edie Frasier, helped Doan's daughter get
an internship with a Democratic Senator's DC office.

I learned that Doan is extremely proud of giving $200,000 to the Republican Party and is a zealous Bush Pioneer.

I learned that Doan's friend, Edie Frasier, is Assistant VP of Capital City Bank of Tallahassee, FL., and that means that Edie Frasier has other ways and means of moving money.

I learned that the gwb43 and other Republican e-mail servers were used in the GSA.

I learned that White House Political Office operatives gave powerpoint political strategy sessions at the GSA-and that that is a violation of The Hatch Act.

I remember that David Safavian was convicted for the role he played as a Jack Abramoff contact inside the GSA as this tpmmuckraker.com article details
http://tpmmuckraker.com/safavian.php

There's a lot more, but I'm interested in what others learned from the Committee hearing today.

We can connect some dots here.

8. I learned that Doan is a liar and was busted by the committee.
I learned that Doan will most likely not remain in her position much longer.

I learned that Doan will probably face charges of lying to Congress.

Oh yeah, I learned she was pivotal in awarding a large contract to Micro Sun in which the previous year they were caught over charging the government 27,000,000.00.

I learned that there are many ways to siphon off money into the pockets of corrupt re-pubes and awarding contracts for furniture and computers for the vice president isn't the only method.

Dem Senator. And which Dem Senator is it? Was the daughter going to do some "opposition research" for her Mom?

10. Michigan's Debbie Stabenow-as I remember
and conducting some "opposition research" seems a likely request indeed from this mother and proud Pioneer.
