QDN: Do they teach political appointees about the Hatch Act anymore?: "In a little-reported incident, the Chief of the General Services Administration Lurita Doan -- the woman appointed by the Bush administration as head of the agency which directs $66 billion a year in U.S. Government procurement contracts -- allowed the Deputy Political Director of the White House to come in and give an overtly political presentation to 40 GSA staffers, a presentation which included lists of Democrats the GOP is targeting in the 2008 election and Republicans who would need 'defense' in order to hold onto their seats. (The presentation, in PDF format, is available from the House Oversight Committee website.) Worse still, people present at the meeting recall Doan standing up at the end and asking employees for ways in which the GSA could 'help our candidates.' "
