GAO Taking Bush to Task
The GAO declared that HHS and the Bush administration illegally used federal funds to produce commercials regarding recent reforms in Medicare. (Washington Post article here.) Of the several ads produced, the GAO was specifically targeting the 'fake news' ad, but there was at least one more that was dodgy -- at best -- in its use of federal funds for obviously biased presentation (say nothing of election year material).
