Col. Allen West: Why Are You Here?

Rep. Allen West wasn't impressed when White House bureaucrat  Daniel Gordon refused to answer questions about a draft executive order, even though Gordon was at the hearing to discuss the draft executive order, that if signed would require contractors to disclose their political donations before apply to a bid process for government contracts. This would allow officials in places like the Defense Department to discriminate against specific contractors because of their political beliefs.

As Erika posted yesterday, it's all about transparency.
