US agency chief quits after reports of lavish spending

The head of the federal agency that oversees supplies, transportation  
and office space for the federal government has resigned following  
reports of lavish spending at a Nevada training conference in 2010.
Martha Johnson, who led the General Services Administration, has  
submitted her resignation as the agency's inspector general prepares  
to release a report on the training conference outside Las Vegas.
The Washington Post reports that organizers spent $835,000 on the  
event, which was attended by 300 employees. Some of the expenses  
included $3,200 for a mind reader, $6,300 on a commemorative coin set  
and $75,000 on a training exercise to build a bicycle.
White House chief of staff Jack Lew says the White House "acted  
quickly to determine who was responsible for such a gross misuse of  
taxpayer dollars."


Like nancy Regan said: "JUST SAY NO"
Same agency that wants "local" taxing agencies to commit 10% (non- 
refundable)  of the bid price and NOT tell the tax payers what the  
building cost?
And note, not jailed, not fired, she "quit".
