DC CTO Vivek Kundra Named To Top Federal IT Job

Posted by samzenpus on Thursday February 5, 2009 @12:57AM from the man-with-the-plan dept.

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."

Hell yeah...it's W's fault! We know he's the reason none of these poor Democrats can pay their taxes. I mean...Daschle was only making a paltry 2 million or so a year!!! How's a poor working class stiff supposed to pay those high taxes on such a measly salary?
