DC CTO Vivek Kundra Named To Top Federal IT Job
DCTechCzar writes "The Obama administration plans to announce it has appointed Vivek Kundra, the District of Columbia's chief technology officer, to take the top information technology post in the federal government, according to a source. Kundra, who has deployed advanced applications to improve the performance of public services during his nearly two years as CTO for the District, will replace Karen Evans as administrator for e-government and information technology in the Office of Management and Budget. The position effectively serves as the federal government's chief information officer. The administration could announce Kundra's appointment as soon as Thursday."
Seems there's no job that can't be outsourced these days!

God help us if the minority party in the Senate can not stop preoccupying themselves with focusing on things that have nothing to do with the appointees' ability to do their jobs. The entire Senate, for that matter, should just shut the fuck up about unpaid taxes until every last one of them has proven that they are as squeaky-clean as they'd like everyone else to be.
