The Government Accountability Office "said yesterday that they will investigate whether the Department of Health and Human Services violated that law by awarding a $21,500 contract to commentator and marriage advocate Maggie Gallagher." The GAO is currently looking into the legality of similar payments from the Department of Education to pundit Armstrong Williams. Democratic Senator Frank Lautenberg, who requested the GAO inquiry along with Senator Kennedy, said "the Bush propaganda mill has violated the trust of the American people."
