GSA In The Spotlight

The General Services Administration's spending is putting federal employees in the spotlight, and a conservative group is capitalizing on it with a campaign commercial. The American Future Fund's spot features suspended GSA official Jeff Neely in a Las Vegas hot tub, as a narrator lists the extravagant spending for which he appears to be responsible. The commercial suggests that President Barack Obama is not taking charge. It quotes him as describing the government as "pretty big." The Washington Post reported that Obama made those remarks last year in an unrelated interview.
