Coming back for seconds?

I first read in the Times that former Erie mayor Rick Filippi now wants $300,000 from the City of Erie for legal fees during his public corruption trial.

ARE YOU SERIOUS??

Just take a look at this picture. Look at this smug SOB. This scumbag took $40 million dollars from the city reserve fund in four years because he along with former councils don't know how to balance a budget. This man is the reason that the city is in the financial problems that they are in. I can't believe that this idiot would come back into the public eye asking the City of Erie for money that they just don't have. If I was him, after being found innocent, I would have hid (or better yet moved) and not come back. Instead, this mindless loser decided that his legal fees cost $300,000 and it was hurting his pocket? How about the citizens of the city that will have to dig deeper in their pockets because of tax hikes that are now iminent because of four years of your sloppy and friviolus spending. If "Slick Rick" would have sent me a letter asking for $300,000 for legal fees because he was an idiot, I probably would have just thrown it in the "junk mail" pile. I'm sure that his buddy Lenny Ambrose gave him a deal on legal fees. You can't tell me that he got charged the full amount. Hey Rick, if you're looking for some money, why didn't you stand in line at the Ambassador to get a job at Presque Isle Downs like the rest of us hard working and honest citizens of Erie? I would keep talking about this, but I feel a stroke coming on...Photo from Erie Times News
