Would Someone Please Tell Me This Was A Joke

I mean, really.

The settlement does not vindicate Ament in any sense except to show that he wasn't the only fool involved with the pension scandal. He still has his share of the blame to accept. And that fact alone should eliminate any foolish thoughts of being a viable candidate for anything.

And to claim to have been the best County Executive...

Two things would prove that wrong.

One, his scandal opened the door for the people of Milwaukee County to be walked on by Walker who is trying to use us as his stepping stone. It will take a long time to recover from the effects of the pension scandal. It will take even longer to fix all the problems Walker has created.

Two, he never fought to preserve child welfare as a county run operation. He is as culpable for the current disarray of child welfare as is Tommy Thompson, Alberta Darling, Margaret Farrow, Scott Walker and any other legislature that voted in favor of the state takeover.

Ament really needs to go away and be quiet.
