Oh, Codey...

Bowing to pressure, Acting Gov. Codey reinstated the property tax rebates in his proposed budget.

Did anyone not see this coming? I was holding out hope, but this IS an election year. I shouldn't have been so optimistic.

My favorite line in Tom Hester's article linked above is, "... the acting governor said he wouldn't let the extra revenue be used for what he called "politically appealing spending." "

You mean, like gimmicky tax rebate programs?
