The Washington Post says today of Lurita Doan, GSA Administrator,

On at least 10 occasions, she testified that she could not recall asking her employees to help the GOP or details of the presentation.

Before the malfeasance of this administration is fully exposed, we are going to hear that a lot. It’s pretty clear that Washington’s Republican elite can not all have faulty memories, so some of them have to be lying. Lying under oath to Congress is a felony.

We need a new way to cut through this tired lie of a defense. The most interesting solutions defy valued civil liberties protections. Doesn’t it just bite you in the ass that the same people who show contempt for civil liberties are the ones in the most need of them and who gamed the system for their purposes will be the beneficiaries of it’s fairness?
