Subject: Trippn' the Light Fantastic, its the GSA high on taxpayer's check

Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, the ranking Democrat on the panel, called the GSA behavior "indefensible and intolerable," taking aim at Neely, a Public Buildings Service regional commissioner for GSA who organized the Las Vegas conference.

"In one e-mail," Cummings began, "Mr. Neely invited personal friends to the conference, writing, and I quote -- and this is simply incredible -- quote: 'We'll get you guys a room near us, and we'll pick up the room tab. Could be a blast.' End of quote. He then went on and wrote this -- 'I know I'm bad, but as Deb and I often say, why not enjoy it while we have it and while we can. Ain't gonna last forever.' End of quote. Well, Mr. Neely, it stops now."

I guess you just can't get away with anything nowadays. Even the taxpayer's dime.
