Uh Oh

The administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy, which handles procurement policy for the White House's Office of Management and Budget, has been arrested on a three-count indictment. David Hossein Safavian has been charged with making false statements to a GSA ethics officer and the GSA-OIG, along with obstruction of a GSA-OIG investigation. Josh at Talking Points Memo has the scoop.

UPDATE: Atrios has some more fun facts...
[Safavian is] also, well, another hack with no experience in his field.

Mr. Safavian's wife? Oh, that's Jennifer Safavian. Her job? Chief counsel on oversight and investigations on the House Government Reform Committee.

Their latest job? Heading up the sham Katrina investigation...
Yowza.
