The reporters who do have spent considerable time weighing the truthfulness comments made by Milwaukee city officials. Some of the parsing is entirely trivial and the resulting PolitiFact stories don’t merit the time or energy it takes to read, much less write.

So, a question: don’t suburban municipal officials ever, ever say anything that should be subject to the Truth-O-Meter? Is anything uttered by a Milwaukee official more deserving of scrutiny than everything said by suburban folk?
