One of West Seattle's leading liberals, Tom Weeks recently announced his resignation as chairman of the monorail project after helping create the $11 billion fiasco. If I remember correctly, previously he took his financial expertise to the Seattle School District and then resigned after the district lost $35 million. Before that, wasn't it Tom, as a City Council member, who took credit for buying Seattle a new 64-story City Hall (The Gateway Tower) for only $250 million and then watched Seattle spend $563 million on a "real" City Hall?

In Sunday's Seattle Times, Mr. Weeks applauded the mayor's support of the monorail - could he be aligning himself with the mayor in hopes of getting a fourth opportunity to waste the taxpayers' money?
