Video: Doan is ‘totally paranoid!’
Yesterday, ThinkProgress noted this catch from Nitpicker from the House hearing with Government Services Administration head Lurita Doan:
Listening into the live webcast of the GSA hearings just now, the camera was down, but the audio was still up and you could here GSA Administrator Lurita Doan griping about the investigation and telling one of her people to take her glass, cause she doesn’t want ‘them to have my fingerprints. They’ve got me totally paranoid!” Hilarious.
We tracked down the video. Doan tells an assistant, “Take my water, and my glasses. I don’t want to leave any fingerprints, they’ve got me totally paranoid.” Watch it:

As damn well she should be….
March 29th, 2007 at 10:21 amLOL she is a fruitcake!
March 29th, 2007 at 10:25 amWhat about the cookies….?
March 29th, 2007 at 10:28 amIt sounds to me like the exact words are “I don’t want them to track my fingerprints. They’ve got me totally paranoid.”
March 29th, 2007 at 10:29 amanyone know if the samspon hearing is going to be on the span-and if so, which one?
March 29th, 2007 at 10:31 amIt’s not paranoia if they really are out to get you, Doan.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:35 amshe”s a real GOP cutie pie. Ill give her some cookies!
March 29th, 2007 at 10:36 amWould this be a Bush appointee, by any chance?
She appears to be dumber than a rock; just like her Cheerleader ‘N Chief.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:39 amShe stole a glass?
March 29th, 2007 at 10:40 amOne has good reason to be concerned when one is involved in breaking the law and then is questioned and confronted with the evidence of the crime by a congressional committee.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:43 amI second No. 2.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:43 amFruitcake for sure.
As the righties like to say…if you have nothing to hide…
March 29th, 2007 at 10:43 amShe’s been watching too much CSI. Sounds like she’s got a reason to be paranoid.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:44 amShe has a senior position in the Federal Government. They already have her fingerprints. What a wacko.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:47 amFunny part is I’d think it was kind of a smart alecy joke, but she should serious and hell…lol
They don’t need to pull all that CSI, SVU stuff to track you down. You’re a federal employee, they know where you live dumbass!
LOLOLOLOL
March 29th, 2007 at 10:53 amfound it! cspan 3…
March 29th, 2007 at 10:53 amYour tax dollars at work!
This is why I am for smaller government — the vindictive pursuing the incompetent.
March 29th, 2007 at 10:59 amTheft of Congressional Tableware!!!
March 29th, 2007 at 11:00 amCynicon, How outraged were you at Kenneth Starr?
Stole a glass. That’s a good one Steve
March 29th, 2007 at 11:04 am“This is why I am for smaller government.”
I’m for efficient and effective government. Not too small to be effective. Not too large to be efficient.
March 29th, 2007 at 11:09 am#17 are you refering to the endless whitewater eharings? Al in alll I too am infavor of smaller government, but more importantly I am in favor of competant government that makkes decisions based on what isbest for our country, not based on what is best for on political party. Especially when that party is a near total failure.
March 29th, 2007 at 11:14 amparanoia implies underlying guilt…
March 29th, 2007 at 11:16 amI’m sure Doan was as serious as a Cheney hunting trip…
When you’re part of an overbearing, super-secret, totalitarian regime who traffics in personal attacks, dirty tricks and character assassination, you start believing everyone else operates that way as well.
March 29th, 2007 at 11:26 amnow this nutcase knows how I’ve been felling during 6+ years of Bush rule.
March 29th, 2007 at 11:30 amGround Business is different every where.

March 29th, 2007 at 11:40 amDoan’s behavior during her testimony yesterday was the most obnoxious and arrogant I have ever seen before a Congressional Committee. She acted like a spoiled child — rude, interrupting, refusing to answer, and making a joke of serious issues. This woman is on our payroll. How do we get her fired?
We know about how Bush destroyed FEMA, the EPA, and God knows how many other agencies. Now we know the GSA is a breeding ground for Bush / GOP political activities.
“Nice job, Doanie”
March 29th, 2007 at 11:56 amShe has a reason to feel paranoid. It’s a whole lot harder to tell a lie than it is to tell the truth. If you tell lies, you have to remember your lies so you won’t slip up. That will make anyone paranoid.
March 29th, 2007 at 12:17 pmExcuse me, but shouldn’t her fingerprints already be on file? Years ago I worked for a federal agency–in resource management, mind you, nothing to do with security–and still I had to submit to a full FBI background check, which included fingerprinting. I thought that was part of a government job. And if she doesn’t want to leave her fingerprints behind, then why not? What has she been doing? Stealing? Killing people? If you’ve done nothing wrong, then what’s the big deal! I mean, isn’t that what conservatives always say when liberals don’t want the NSA snooping into people’s phone records and whatnot?
March 29th, 2007 at 12:28 pmI have turned over Lurita’s eyeglasses and drinking glass in a plastic bag to the left-wing of the FBI. Hopefully, they will match her fingerprints to bullet casings found in Dallas, 1963.
Ask not what your paranoia can do to you , but what you can do to your paranoia.
March 29th, 2007 at 12:29 pmDishonesty = paranoia
Honesty = a cakewalk
It’s your choice, Doan.
March 29th, 2007 at 12:41 pmDon’t worry. As a federal employee, she has already been fingerprinted.
March 29th, 2007 at 2:07 pmProbably she was affraid of the CSI guys who can determine if a person has the Mad Cow mental illness thanks to a saliva sample…

I think she’s right to worry — I imagine they’d find what they were looking for. :)
March 29th, 2007 at 4:06 pm“ALL RIGHT, Lurita, THAT’S ENOUGH BASKETS YOU’VE WEAVED ALREADY!!!!! JESUS, THOSE F*CKING BASKETS ARE OVERFLOWING OUT OF Doan’s PADDED CELL!!!!!” EXPOSTULATED THE WHITE-SUITED GUARD OUTSIDE Lurita Doan’s ASYLUM CELL!!!!!
March 29th, 2007 at 5:27 pmI am sorry, but did I not just see Doan still ” Goverment Property”.
March 29th, 2007 at 7:52 pmI am sorry, did I or did I not just see Doan Steal Goverment Property?
