I read that the blame for the GSA spending was placed on President Bush.

I truly feel like we're in a perpetual Twilight Zone with this administration, and I pray we're going to escape from it this November.....

Former GSA head rejects push to 'blame' Bush administration over Vegas conference

From the article....

Obama officials last week pointed to rising costs under the Bush administration to suggest that the $820,000 Vegas conference could have been avoided -- if only the Bush-era GSA had acted.

These people are truly crazy.

"Obama's A fraud."

There, I fixed it.

The way to prevent this from happening ever again is to only allow Federal Conferences to held in the same conditions that the military has to endure during combat operations.

At the high end would be 14 people crowded into a three bedroom, two bath house, with MREs. At the mid end would be 14 people crowded into a 40 foot trailer but with hot meals served in a chow hall. At the low end would be GP medium tents with MREs. BTW they would travel via military air (training for the aircrews) and be paid government meals and quarters furnished rates.

If it is good enough for the military why isn't good enough for everyone else?

I am being generous - my initial thought included an enviromental loop - all summer conferences held at an abandoned Utah military air base (Wendover) and all winter conferences held at an abandoned Montana military air base (Harve)
