Joe Walsh Child Support Settlement
U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh.

U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) has reportedly arrived at a settlement with his ex-wife as a Cook County judge has dismissed the child support lawsuit against him.

The McHenry, Ill. congressman and Laura Walsh released a joint statement Thursday expressing regret at how their "public misunderstanding" impacted their family, the Daily Herald reports.

"Like many families we have had our share of issues and made our share of mistakes over the years," the statement read. "Having resolved these issues together and cleared up these mistakes in private, we now agree that Joe is not and was not a deadbeat dad and does not owe child support."

He's not a deadbeat dad anymore. But he's still an asshole.

Google polishing a turd and watch the video. They end up looking really cool.
