Claim: A TV ad by a conservative group gives some factually challenged answers to its own rhetorical question, "How exactly does President Obama spend your tax dollars?" It wrongly claims that the boss of the General Services Administration "couldn't make it to Vegas because she had meetings planned … at Solyndra." That's not true. The claim linking the two scandals is based on an inaccurate April 10 report that was quickly corrected — nearly two weeks before the ad first aired.
