Scott Walker's Wrecking Of County Parks Rivals His Damage To The Bus System

Scott Walker's pursuit of recognition for the worst-managed County government gets momentum with the news he has pushed funding for Milwaukee County parks near the bottom of a national ranking.

Not long ago, Milwaukee was noted as the only major bus system to show a drop in ridership - - this due to Walker's simultaneous, sabotaging cuts in routes and increases in fares - - so Walker is well on his way to winning the national county executives' annual booby prize.

His goal is to transfer that record and his open contempt for public services to state government with a run for Governor in 2010.
