The federal government picked up thousands of new buildings in 2009

a real estate spree which raises questions about the Obama administration's commitment to savings billions by shedding excess property.

President Obama over the summer signed a memorandum ordering department heads to "identify and eliminate" unneeded properties, with the goal of saving "no less than" $3 billion by fiscal 2012. The order followed a similar efficiency pledge made by former President George W. Bush in 2004.

While the administration claims it's making serious headway toward that goal, a recent inventory from the Federal Real Property Council showed that 2009 was a banner year for gaining -- not selling -- federal property.

"The federal government must improve its real property asset management," the report declared, calling on Washington to push harder in getting rid of buildings and land it's not using.

I find it funny that the government "picked up thousands of new buildings" when in reality it sold a bunch of properties while leasing new space.

you're really on a hack roll tonight...you're usually not this bad

1. not all the property they picked up is leased

2. regardless, they still picked up 71 million more square feet of property

3. and its comical how you think that leasing extra property somehow funny and not at all picking up extra property....how fucking stupid can you be...let's see....if i owned 10 homes and said i was going to downsize...i sell 5 homes and then lease 10 more for a total of 15 homes....yeah...that is truly downsizing

idiot
